The old ones would have, but these new ones are made too junky. All of the joints were very weak.

Obviously a paved surface is best but it would go on an average back country road. Would requie a little harder pedaling. Our grand baby age 4 flew around in the grass. We love this cart! Best thing ever!

This is the best toy I have ever purchased for my grandchildren. Since I have purchased all their friends enjoy riding and have since purchased their own. It is best on flat driveways or sidewalk. Since they are so low to the ground I would not advise riding in the street. As far as hills I took my grand daughter to a park that had hills. She had a blast going down hill on the trail. My grandson would not attempt. Girl age 7, boy age 5.

I use it indoors but it could easily go outdoors. The wheels have no traction so it wouldn't be good for rough terrain. It was much smaller than I expected so an upgrade to a big, durable outdoor wagon was needed for us. Great for the price!

I would say no. This is a beautiful cruiser with gears (basically) i think out would survive a dirt path but its more for cruising pavement or boardwalk. I think you're looking for something with a lighter frame and sturdier wheels (i am guessing the dirt road would have grooves and bumps). Try going to an REI store and asking the petiole

Bumpy roads should be fine. Not sure about trails because this is a hybrid, not a mountain bike. However, if you want to do off road biking, you can change out the tires for ones that are better designed for that kind of riding. I don't need a mountain bike and have never ridden trails with mine so I can't tell you whether the suspension is sufficient.

I have not. I live on a dirt road and have not had any problems. I have only had a week but so far I am very pleased.

My son is 7 and rides it without issues. Your son will grow into it, and the larger tires handle bumps far better than the 4" razor wheels. Tire wise, it's much safer. Get tuff skin for the tires, which protects the tubes when off-roading.

If you are talking about riding down the beach or gravel more than an inch or so it probably would not work, but a dirt road would not be a problem. Our son also rode it through 3" grass and it slows down but still works.

YesMy son has had it in Vermont and it was going all over the snow as it is 4 wheel drive.

I guess that depends on what you mean by offroad. On compacted dirt I think it would do okay, probably not so good on gravel or sand or loose dirt.

I would think it would do ok. We bought it knowing some of our walking paths are not paved. The tires are not "off-road" but for mostly dirt I would think they would hold up for occasional off road trips.

I would mostly use it on flat surfaces. I've tried to take it on rougher terrains and it shakes and rattles and is very bouncy. Doesn't do very well on dirt roads.

IMHO pretty we'll, but keep in mind the motor is primarily to be used as an assist for pedaling, not as primary power. I don't really use it for pure off road - I primarily use it for going to, from and on rail trails.

I have ridden it on dirt paths and it worked fine. The tires are clearly street tires but they work.

I gave this Trike to my Grandson and he loves it. They have a grassy backyard where it seems to work fine, in spite of the uneven surface. He also rides in on the sidewalk, while not the same as pavers, there are numerous gaps and bumps which it seems to handle with no problems. I think the wheels are big enough that they should be able to handle pavers as well.

Absolutely!! It is a great truck and very durable. I got two grandsons one for Christmas and they loved them. Many, many hours of outdoor fun with them. :)
