Kid Trax Red Fire Engine Electric Ride-On
Amazon.com Product Description
Little ones can rush to the rescue on this electric ride-on fire truck by Kid Trax. Flashing emergency lights, a working fire hose, and lighted dashboard make each ride thrilling for youngsters ages three and up. The two-speed transmission has speeds at 2.5 mph and 5.0 mph, with reverse at 2.5 mph. Forward and reverse motion is controlled by a clutch located at the bottom of the seat. Parental control ensures safety as the child drives this ride-on.
A working megaphone allows the toddler to call out to victims and the little hero can then put out the blaze with the 1-liter capacity super-spray hose. Fire truck gauges, sturdy grab bars, and pre-applied graphics add to the fun. The truck also has ignition, acceleration, horn, and siren sounds (from controls built into the steering wheel) to create a realistic experience for your little firefighter.
Not only is this fire engine loads of fun, it is safe and built to last. It features a long-lasting, 12-volt battery (which provides up to 10 hours of battery life between charges), twin rear-wheel drive motors, and durable wheels with a built-in traction strip to prevent slippage. Parents love that this electric ride-on is quick and easy to assemble. And two children may ride at one time, so long as their combined weight does not exceed 130 pounds. This ride-on comes with a one-year limited warranty and a six-month battery warranty.
 Kid-sized fire engine is ready to roll. |  Includes working water cannon on the back. |

Don't waste your money!
We received this as a Christmas gift and it was great for the short time it actually worked. Like other reviewers, we had similar battery issues (not available at any retail stores, took months to recieve the replacement, battery very expensive, etc.), but also other mechanical problems. Suffice to say, my kids now enjoy just "pretending" the thing works and playing in the fire truck and on the fire truck, since the fire truck itself hasn't run for over a year. Defintely not worth the money.
Kids love this!
Our 4 year old loves this firetruck. The 2 year old rides along - there is so much for both of them to do on the truck. They enjoy the water feature as well. Would recommend for ages 3 and up. It does go really fast.
My boys love this
Great time had by all. The only down side it how expensive a new battery is. My boys rode this so much we had to replace the wheels and the gears, but the company shipped them out to us free of charge. They were really easy to deal with. My boys still play with this fire truck.
Not worth it
This thing is a bigger tease than most strip clubs. Has all of the extra doo-dads (lights, siren, PA/microphone, water gun) that most other ride-ons do not. Unfortunately, the quality of this thing does not match those of even the most basic ride-on, non-battery powered vehicles. Within 2 DAYS of normal use by 1 3year old child, the fire truck developed stress cracks in the body along the sides of the inside of walls near the footwell. They looked to be heading down to the floor, who knows if they would stop there. There was absolutely no damage to the sides of the box at all when it was unpacked, and for this to occur with a solitary 35lb. rider is absolutely inexcusable. The water reservoir tank ruptured its seal the second time it was refilled and pumped. And you can forget about customer service stepping up to the plate and honoring their warranty...they were very slow to respond if at all, said it would take them a week to review the photos of the stress cracks (though it appeared the same customer service rep was judge/jury), and seemed intent on blaming it on a shipper issue beyond their control. No thanks, I'm not wasting my money on something this expensive, only to have my kid get more disappointed by the day.
Excellent Toy
We got this fire truck as our Christmas gift for our grandson Jaret in Oviedo, FL. He absolutely loves it. He waits patiently every afternoon for his dad to come home from work so he can ride it on the sidewalk. It is an excellent and sturdy toy.
