Product Description:

Peg Perego's John Deere Gator is better and "badder" than ever! The new John Deere Gator HPX has tires with increased tread, traction and styling that any child - or adult - will love! Little workers will tool around the yard as they help you with chores hauling everything in their huge dumping cargo bed with a tailgate that opens. A foot pedal accelerator and a 2-speed shifter means this vehicle travels 2 1/4 or 4 1/2 mph on grass, dirt or hard surfaces, and it goes in reverse. While kids enjoy all of the amazing features of the John Deere Gator HPX, including adjustable seats and a windshield, parents will appreciate the high-speed lockout that prevents beginners from going too fast. The high performance 12-volt rechargeable battery and recharger are included.

Customer Reviews:
worth every penny!!!!
this has been the best investment so far! we bought this for our son christmas eve 2008 @ wally world for $300. i did not put it together so couldn't tell you how easy it was, but it was completed by midnight after the kids went to bed. you need to charge the battery i think for 18 hrs before using it. our son was 2 1/2 when he started using it. it took him a while to learn reverse, but once he got it, good luck getting him off. i put it as 5 stars for educational b/c His grandfather says he drives so well. (he lets him steer the real tractor now). ours did not have seatbelts, so cannot comment on that. but his older cousins (5,7 yrs)come over and that's the first thing they want to do. it says not to ride in the back for safety reasons, but i have caught the older cousins riding in the back without a problem besides me yelling @ them. I do not let them ride on the pavement, only grass and dirt to keep the wheels in good condition. my son wishes it had some sort of horn.

Battery placement was not clearly thought of.
My 4 yrs old twins got this truck as a gift about one year ago and they love it. I do not. Since the toy is battery operated, Daddy must "fill it up" by removing the battery from a hole that sits where a radiator on a normal car sits. The battery hole is very tight that once the battery is out its a challenge to put the thing back in. A rod that holds the battery in place requires few minuets of cajoling just to line up. My twins do not get as much time using the truck since I dread charging the battery. Also seat belts are hard to buckle since the buckle side is way too close to the seat, they should be centered.

Great little truck!
This thing is awesome! The battery is easy to get to, it was easy to assemble, and our son loves it. The best part is seeing our 2 year old put the thing in reverse to get himself out of a hole. They catch on quick.
