This review is from: Peg Perego Polaris Trail Boss (Toy)
I'm sorry I didn't do a little more homework prior to dropping $350. The quad looks great. However, the functionality and design leaves a lot to be desired. To begin with, the tires; they're hard plastic. My son likes to ride on the sidewalk because it represents the open road. Concrete and plastic is a bad combo and traction is an ever-present problem. When he hits the pedal, the wheels generally spin in place until they grab. Naturally anytime they do that they get ground down more than I would like. In fact, tires tend to spin quite a bit on anything but grass. What they should have done is design the thing with actual rubber tires - soft or hard - which would wear out less frequently, or at the very least offer a `slip-on' 1/2" thick rubber band that you could slip over the tire for added traction. Next is power - or lack thereof. My 6-year old son weighs close to 50lbs and his 4-1/2-year old sister roughly 40lbs. When they get on it together, which is 95% of the time, it puts quite a strain on the thing. Yeah, it'll go over little hills but when you have a motorized vehicle that resembles a 4-wheel drive quad, who wants to go over a little hill? It's also got a built-in towing attachment, but if it has trouble with the two of them on there, hooking a little wagon and towing a 3rd kid is obviously out of the question. Finally, the speed selector (shifter) is in the worst possible place. When placed in the faster of the 2 forward speeds, the shifter inconveniently hits the rider precisely in the right inner leg near the knee cap, which makes for an uncomfortable ride. Looking back, I should have looked into the Peg Perego Polaris 800 Twin, 24 Volt vehicle, with much more power. And even though the 800 Twin also has plastic tires (which would probably last even less with the extra power), I'd have preferred that over its sluggish, smaller cousin. Overall, I sorely regret the purchase.

This review is from: Peg Perego Polaris Trail Boss (Toy)
this is a little pricey compared to the 6volt 4-wheelers, but it will hold more weight and go up and down uneven paths better. I would say it runs really well with up to 75lbs on it, but if you are expecting to put two 50 or 60lb children on it and drive up and down hills you will be frustrated. This is not a gas powered 4-wheeler with rubber tires, but it isn't the price of one either. when it comes to power you get what you pay for. this will handle 130lbs, but only on flat ground.
This 4-wheeler runs better on grass or dirt and not well on pavement or rocks. I would recommend this for 4 to 6 year olds or a bigger 3 year old that can follow directions well. One of the power wheel jeeps would be safer if you have a couple younger children. This 4 wheeler has a fair amount of height to it and a small child wouldn't even beable to reach the gas peddle while sitting down, however As the child is trying to climb onto it the gas peddle is right on the floor board and it can be accidently stepped on and the 4-wheeler will take off. There is no neutral position on the gear shift and no "on and off" option, once the battery is in it. it will go when the gas is pressed. This makes the toy dangerous if you have a toddler hanging around the toy. I keep the battery out of mine when not in use, since I have different aged children. This toy has held up well for me, I have had one for around 4 years. There have been a couple cracked plastic peices, mine came with a tool box, which is nice, but doesn't stay on real well. the wiring and shifter have held up well, there is some wear on the plastic tires. Tires can be replaced. My son stopped showing interest in this toy around age 7 and started asking for a real 4-wheeler with more speed. This is probably true for just about any of the electric ride on toys, since they can only go so fast the heavier the child gets.

This review is from: Peg Perego Polaris Trail Boss (Toy)
It was shipped out to us so quickly and the delivery company was awsome. Time was of the element to us as it was a birthday present and we couldn't find it in a store anywhere. It was easy to assemble and made quite a splash at our son's 7th birthday party. Even the young teens loved it! Great product!
