My son age 6 and daughter age 3 love the whole "There Goes a ...." series. They think Dave and Becky are the greatest. My daughter particularly loves the Monster Truck video. She thinks the huge trucks running over cars is very entertaining! Great series.

My boys LOVE this video. My only complaint is that on several occasions "Dave" pushes, smacks or yells at "Becky" in frustration. Even in play, this is inappropriate. This video is aimed at boys. They didn't need to add these little tiffs. It only detracts from an otherwise great video.

We have a two year old that has a facination with trucks. He has a few Monster trucks of the Match Box type. He caught a monster truck show on ESPN. Move over all non-monster trucks. He knows Grave-Digger, Big-Foot and others that I'll never know. So we saw this tape and figured it must be good. (We have other tapes in this series.) I can't stand it. My wife can't stand it. Our two year old loves it. Watches it over and over. And over. Finally I ...ordered two other Monster Truck VHS Tapes and a couple of Monster Truck Books. Not to spoil our child but to preserve the parents sanity. We figure that different monster truck books and videos are better than the same monster truck books and video, over and over again. Oh, and why then the five stars? We just put ourselves in the shoes of our two year old.

My son got this video for his 3rd birthday, it looked like it would be fun to watch, my son loves trucks so this was right up his alley. As I'm sitting there watching it, in my mind I'm thinking, "we won't be watching this again." But once the video was over my son says, "again?" so we go again...and again...and again! He loves it!! The only reason I didn't at first was because it was so cheezy. But it's geared towards kids, and that's what you have to remember.
The video does a great job with showing kids what a monster truck can do, along with some other veichles you'd see at a Monster truck show.
My son loved this video so much I went out and bought some more from this series of "there goes a..." I definately recommend this video to anyone who has a child who loves Monster Trucks.

These "There goes..." movies are the greatest!! I even enjoy watching them with my children!! Fun and informative.....you must get this movie and others like it!! Now I think Dave should make "There goes a snow plow"!!!!

This is a very cute video. My son wants to see the "Monster Truck Driver Dave" tape every morning! It's fun for the whole family. Not as educational as some in the series have been, but there are interesting tid-bits of information for older children.

We have about 6 of the "there goes a..." titles, but both my boys are just mesmerized by this one. They watch it twice every night! My 21 month old baby is always asking for a "mon-ter tuck" and he is just as transfixed as his 3.5 year old brother.

Yeah, the plot is hokey, but the plot seems to keep them more interested in this video.

If you have a little kid, this is a great way to keep him (or her) happy and give you a little time to yourself.

My son LOVES all trucks, machines, trains, etc. There Goes A Firetruck is great, you actually learn about and see firetrucks. We thought There Goes A Monster Truck would be similar...WRONG. The movie has a goofy story line and TOO much Dave and Becky...they even have an arguement! This is a good video to borrow or rent - but I don't suggest buying it.

My son is only 21 months and loves all of the "There Goes a..." tapes that we have bought him so far. But my husband and I both feel that the team of Dave and Becky really make the tapes so much fun to watch. They are very funny together. Keep up the good work! We really enjoy the tapes.

My son is into any kind of truck and he really likes this video. Dave and Becky are kind-of annoying and the plot is hokey, but it works for toddlers. You'll get your money out of this one. :)
