Truck Adventures is Great!!, January 5, 2003
My 2 year old son loves this DVD! And my husband and I enjoy it as well. This DVD includes 3 videos: There Goes A Fire Truck, There Goes a Garbage Truck, and There goes a Truck, plus a bunch of special features. This is a great deal! Most children's DVD's are just copies of their VHS cousins, with no bonus material, lasting only 30 minutes, and expensive This one is over 90 minutes, and priced the same as other DVD's. We don't own a TV, so we curl up in front of the computer and watch. We love truck driver Dave, and his side-kick truck driver Becky for their enthusiasm, sense of humor, and their ability to teach in a very entertaining way. I do hope they come out with more DVD versions of "There Goes..." series. We would buy them all. Our son has learned so much, and animately describes the scenes to me as each new scenario comes up. I think girls would enjoy this, too. Becky is right in there with Dave and all their misadventures. Highly recommended. You and your kids will be very happy you purchased this great DVD

Glad to see this series on DVD, August 6, 2002
I'm sure most people looking at this DVD are already familiar with the There Goes... series. They all feature Dave and sometimes Becky looking into some kind of vehicle or piece of equipment. Designed for children, they are very watchable by adults and are fairly educational, if for nothing else than the vocabulary. What I like best about the DVD is that it contains 3 programs. It could fit 4 but hey it's better than wasting a whole DVD on less than 30 minutes like many other children's titles. With the individual videos selling for as much as [$], getting three on a DVD for [$$](...) is a good deal. Now that I've eliminated VHS in my house, it is nice to see multi-program DVDs like this one and I hope to see more in the future... I have just a few comments about this DVD in regards to the content. I really didn't find any of the scenes too "scary" or irresponsible as few others have described. There is some comedy about Dave falling in the garbage, but there are also several examples of safety commentary in the program as there are in all the Real Wheels tapes.

These are the worst ever!, October 27, 2006
My son loves "real life" trucks and big machines, so I thought these would be fun for him to watch. They are not, in fact they don't even hold his attention. Dave talks way too much and is way too goofy even for little kids. Just show the trucks in action and forget all the up close stuff on Dave. I have since bought the I Love CAT Machines series and they are fantastic.
