Is this truck tough enough for a three year old boy? Looks like a lot of plastic. Thx.

Yup. About the only reason my three year old doesn't play with it all the time is because he turned four and got a bike.

Both my grandsons have this truck and they have had hours and hours of fun with them!! I would certainly recommend this truck?

Yes! The back is actually metal. My 2.5yr nephew (well he's 3 now) loved it! It's withstood moving snow piles In the winter and sand at the beach! It's bigger than what you think too! Great toy for kids who love trucks!

I bought for a 3.5 year old and he loves it. Just have to teach the kids to take care of their toys. Vincent still plays with them daily and they are still look brand new,

Start with a small set and see how it goes. My grandson was seven when I gave a set to him. I believe your three year old might enjoy putting something together even if it doesn't look like the picture on the box.

Yes this toy is very durable and I was pleasantly surprised when it arrived to see how big it was. The features are cool all the parts actually move. He's 10 years old now and hardly ever plays with these trucks now (of course until I just mentioned I wanted to reply to someone asking me about it now the crane and bulldozer are also in the middle of my bedroom floor :) hope this helps...Also if interested I will sale for half the retail price.

We gave the Little Tikes Cozy Truck to our grandson for his 2nd birthday. We are hoping he can use it for many years. His head isn't even close to touching the roof and his feet can't touch the ground yet so the floor board is still in. I'm guessing a 3 year old would fit in it just fine at least until he is 4 or 5 depending on his growth rate.

The axles are metal. My granddaughters play with this truck all the time. They love to push it around the yard and climb into the bed of the dump part. It is quite large. The granddaughters are 18 months old and they take turns easily sitting in the dump bed then pushing each other. The dump part is all metal except for some trim on the handle. The chassis is very thick heavy plastic. The axles metal and the wheels heavy plastic. My granddaughters are too young to really give it a workout like maybe a 6 year old could but that said I am very happy with this purchase and expect it to last a long time. The axles are metal.

Two is the perfect age for this toy. By age three he will likely find garbage trucks a bit less interesting but at two years old they are fascinating. This toy is easy enough for kids to have fun. Small 'garbage' may need to be uncaught from the bin periodically by an adult.

My son is 10yrs old and had it since March. So far it's still going strong. But it does look as if you gave intentional force that it would break. My opinion only.... Hope this helps�

No, I think it is fine for a 3 year old! It's a great little house with the exception of the decals we received. They don't stick when you have the house outside!!

It is plastic. I believe that Tonka replaced the metal with plastic many years ago probably for safety reasons as well as the weight. All in all The quality is good for a plastic truck!

I purchased this truck for my grandsons 3rd birthday. He loves it. I think it is good for that age because it has no small parts and issturdy.

Yes, it is and it's very cute. My son was just over 2 when I bought this for him and he loves it. The tractor and fire truck are also his favorites.

It appears to be well made from quality plactic materials that are capable of taking some abuse. My 4yo grandson plays with it a lot and has put it through enough the last 3 months to distoy it if he was going to. Still going strong!

Hi! I bought it for my son who is 3.5 years old and he loves this very much. If your child is into Hot Wheel Cars and other varieties of trucks and cars I can imagine he'd have a good bit of fun with this. All levels of the Rig adjust to lower and off load the cars, it's well made, fun, great for imagination. I can easily see at that age though - depending - that it could be an item easily grown out of. Each parent knows their child best. The toy as I said is fantastic-O though. Hope this helps. Maybe something like a remote controlled car or some of those larger monster Hot Wheels Trucks would be better suited if you find this isn't to your liking. Good luck shopping. :) Hi!

Yes. It is a reallly strong plastic. It is amazing. We have a 3 1/2 yr old grandson and the ladder goes higher than he is tall. It is his number one toy he plays with. We love the Bruder trucks and have quite a few of them.

I bought this for my son when he was 1 an now he is 3, he still enjoys it but now he pulls the toy to his dirt pile, doesn't really pedal with it anymore. If I was hunting for a CAT digger, I might try something else. The older kids (ages 4-9) in our neighborhood really like just the backhoe with the seat on the back....I hope that helps

This is NOT a cheap plastic truck. Bruder trucks are some of the most durable toy trucks around!
