vroom, vroom, vroomy vroom vroom…

April 9th, 2008

So, the boy loves cars. He has a hand-me-down garage-sale Little Tikes Cozy Coupe that he adores.

But he is a big boy and soon we’ll have to fold him in half to get him into his car, so I’ve been looking around for replacements. And have stumbled upon the wonderful world of metal pedal cars.  

Oy, look at this orange one! Wouldn’t you love to race that around a driveway?! Or would you? Or, more importantly, would a two-year-old? Or, actually MORE importantly would a three- or four-year-old? Because these things are a bit spendy. The cheapest I’ve seen the orange car for is $135 on ebay. Some of the others run more towards $250-300. So does anyone have experience with pedal cars? Did your kids like them, and like them for awhile? Or did they move on to bikes and forget the car, leaving it as just one more thing to hog garage space?

    Who cares whether he like is ot not? As long as you get this orange one, it’s all good.

    I know, I *lurve* the orange. But I’m kind of digging this one with the flames too. Maybe we should spring for the orange one, then add flames?!

    Oh my, I can see your little guy driving the one with the flames while wearing his “POW!” shirt.

    Clearly, the only appropriate thing to do is to buy both the orange one and the one with the flames.

    Problem solved.
