I’d settle to be able to repair the truck I already have.
But, unfortunately, the stupid electrical connectors have mostly caramelized in the Texas heat, and fall apart into plastic dust if you experiment to figure out which piece of plastic to coerce them into unjoining themselves.
How about Meh offering a practice kit containing a plethora of different connectors?
@terrry At least, in working on the starter, you’ll have relatively cool (though hard) concrete beneath you and a vehicle body above you to shade you from the sun (assuming you lower the hood ) while you are removing/replacing.
If more serious work is to be done, you can take the unit inside where the air conditioner is (be sure to ask permission, if necessary).
I got something akin to this (pic from A’n) a dozen or two years ago and it has been worth every penny when working outside in the heat. Probably saved me from heat exhaustion a time or two. Good for its stated purpose also, drying wet carpets.
Hey people? On sidereal they have a couple charging pads!!! Does anyone know if they will charge a fire tablet o Hello anybody Yeah anybody know Or an iPad help! Hlla at 68 this year; been rode hard and put away wet!!!
Unfortunately my order (a gift sent to our two grandsons who live in another state) arrived with the box partially crushed, which broke each of the components inside. The shipment needed a sturdier box – it is not worth the time and hassle to ship it back…

Can’t you just put all the ingredients into the cement mixer??
@chienfou Well if you can’t it comes with a screw driver so could drink that.
Oh, so it sounds like my actual truck. When I got it (many years ago), it was “running” on 2½ cylinders.

Does anyone know the minimal recommended age?
@hchavers instructions, on the website link, say 3+
What is it that “lovers of RC toys” will find here to love?
@rpstrong apparently the screwdriver doubles as a remote controller
@gageaa75 I’m just surprised that that wasn’t featured in the specs.
What the truck!
The pics don’t show any of the trucks disassembled, only the screwdriver. How much assembly is required?
@gageaa75 the odysseytoys page shows an exploded view
Your kiddo gets a toy that comes with its own (lame plastic) power drill and screwdriver,
FIFY
