I was looking through Amazon for my son's birthday for a realistic type truck. He has so many play toy trucks, but nothing real. I stumbled across this particular company (Bruder). If you want realistic, lots of moving parts, lots of fun, durable built toy, this is the one. I believe anything from this company would be great. I know it costs a bit more, but it's worth it. This vehicle has an opening cab to expose the engine, side doors to expose the cargo as well as the back opens. the entire cargo box can be removed and there's a lift attached. Everything is detailed and works great. The door latches in the back have actual latches on them that you have to unlock to open the door. This thing is great and my son's had it for a month and it's not broken. It has real rubber tires and metal axles. It's made out of durable plastic. You won't be disappointed and I just wish I had had stuff like this when I was a kid.

We purchased this for my son for his 5th birthday. He loves it, plenty of little gadgets to keep him occupied for hours. The only problem is that this did not come with any instructions (and none available on the manufacturer's website) and there are some things we can't figure out. The bed comes off but is difficult and would need an adults assistance. The forklift is supposed to stay on the back but we can't figure how to keep it on. Otherwise, this is very well built, solid material, and great for a 5 year old.
(My son's response when the forklift wouldn't stay on the back: it's ok Mom, it can ride on top) :)

I purchased this truck for Christmas for my Grandson age 4. He knows most types of construction vehicles and the purpose for each. He was thrilled because he also wanted this last Christmas and he is very spacific about what he wants. He loved that the container portion of the truck can be removed and left standing on legs. He used the forklift to carry planks to build a road. No breakage yet but he will give it a full workout this summer. The sides are soft and he has a little trouble getting them up to stay, but that is due to his age. Could have a few more pallets with it, but they can be ordered.

He has quite a few Bruder trucks and they have been quite durable. He actually digs in dirt with them outside. The only problems were with the track equipment. The tracks came off.

Great toy for a grandson who loves construction equipment. I have found this brand very durable.

Our 4 year old loves trucks and while he does like this one he doesn't love it. However, he does love the forklift. I have a few complaints about it: 1. the forklift doesn't attach on the back (frustrationing for a 4 yr old). 2. The forklift prongs probably won't last long. Had to tell son it's fragile. 3. The side flaps are difficult for a child to operate. I have been trying to talk my son into letting me cut them off as I see little use for them.

My son has so many different trucks/cars from all makes and models. I wanted him to try out this brand. It's realistic in all it's featured and details. Not the most durable so I'd recommend for older kids (bought it before my son was 3 and already some broken parts but he earned this with a sticker chart so he's free to as he likes). I just like the sheer size of it. I would buy more Bruder toy trucks.
