It is mostly plastic. I wasn't very impressed. The only metal part was the dump bed. My grandson still loves it though and I guess that is all that matters.

Parts of the cab are plastic and also the tires. But the rest of it is metal. It's about as close to original as you're going to get.

This dump truck is metal and as sturdy as you would expect a Tonka to be. Aha, reading the other responses, I see I'm wrong about the truck. I got it for a grandson. It went straight to his house. It looked plenty sturdy out in the dirt with the rest of their trucks. My son was not disappointed with it, however, it was smaller than the rest of the boys' trucks.

Truck bed is metal, wheels and cab (partially) plastic. It is really durable!

yes, it is metal and plastic structure, however the end result is very good, my goal was to get fuel economy on the highway consumption decreased by 50%. Now if you want a significant increase in power I would not recommend.

All of it is metal, but covered with a layer of plastic, I like it but I am not using it, I bought it for jeep, but the way the steering wheel in jeep is made, make the entire luck turn around freely, so I went back to the old fashion one that locks to the breaks

The delivery guys took it out of the box on truck, so I'm not really sure. When they brought it in the house it was only in plastic.

It's plastic, the smaller truck they make one has a metal cab and a plastic body.

It is plastic. My son has over 17 different bruder trucks. We have not had a single item break. These are made of high quality material.

From what I saw it was all plastic, but i never checked the inside of the knob, there was some kind of click sound so when I installed the knobs they went on nice and snug. I don't think you will have any issues with it though. As of now they are still on the truck and havent fallen off, pretty solid product in my opinion.

Mostly plastic, part metal. However, I literally had to pick up the thing and inspect it for the answer -- it doesn't look like cheap plastic, and the base is heavy to keep it steady.

It's plastic, but very high qualty . The detail and paint job is on par with that of a diecast model.

The case itself is tough poly plastic. The frame and the attachment to the truck is steel.

It's got both metal and plastic parts. It is so well made, and I would recommend this to anyone! My grandson just loves it. He's 2, and I can see him playing with this for years to come. Best toy I've ever bought.

It is all aluminum. It does have everything needed to mount it to your truck. Cutting off the old exhaust takes the longest.

I think it's all plastic. It's pretty cool if you can deal with the occasional leaking around where the base meets the body. I like mine.
