Okay. I am an old guy. I am 60 years old and I have been fascinated by RC cars and toys since I was a little kid. I have had MANY RC cars over the last half decade.This vehicle is hands down my favorite. It is SO FUN!I have read reviews that this isn't fast enough. Yeah, it's not a race car. Heck, it has EIGHT wheels! It's not made for speed. It is made for going over and through areas that most RC cars cannot. It is quick and fast enough.The traction is AMAZING!I have also read reviews that it doesn't turn well. Okay folks, again, this thing has EIGHT wheels and it is EIGHT wheel drive! It's NOT going to steer like a traditional vehicle. All of the wheels turn at the same time. Each side is independent of each other. When I am playing with this I have no problem steering it. I stop, adjust angle, and go again. So easy! Plus, this thing can just stay in one spot and spin in circles.As far as climbing things, I am truly amazed. We have a child gate. You have to step over a metal bar which is about 2-3" high in a doorway. Well, I can drive up to that bar and go right over it! Truly amazing!I cannot vouch for this being waterproof. I haven't tried that and I probably won't. I don't have the want or need to.I am going to try it in the snow the next time it snows here.About 20 years ago I had some rebound-type of 4x4 RC cars. This is similar except for twice the number of wheels.This vehicle reminds me of those.If all you want is speed, then go find a fast car. I have plenty of those, and they're great. BUT they're not as fun driving around inside the house. Not at all. I need a big parking lot or street where my super fast RC vehicles really shine.Again, this is SO AWESOME and it is MY FAVORITE vehicle I've owned in over 50 years. I love it so much I bought another. Now I have yellow and black. We can use them at the same time.So, before you buy an RC vehicle, think about what you want. Something that can go quick enough and climb many things, or something really fast that's going to bump into every piece of furniture and wall.Your choice. I choose THIS!!!!

Ordered this for my 7 year old grandson and he loved it. Going over rocks and racing through the driveway. He loved the 8 wheels. You need to order the one with 2 battery packs. He played with it so much he has to switch them out. He loves it!

I got this for my son so he can bring it camping. We tested it out today and it's pretty rad. We tested on some rocks, grass and our doggy pool.

Cheap remote but the truck is cool and works like it says

I bought this for my 6-year-old and he absolutely loves it! It’s fast, powerful, and handles all kinds of terrain—grass, sand, even water. The 8WD makes it super fun to drive. It feels sturdy and well-built. Definitely a perfect birthday or holiday gift for any kid who loves RC cars!

I can’t give this anything but one star. The remote has to pair with the car and there is no but to force it into pairing mode. The lights on the remote and the car just blink. I thought maybe the batteries just weren’t strong enough so I put in fresh batteries charged the car battery again, still blinking. I did get them to pair finally, for a short time, but then they unpaired again and I can’t fix it. Contacted Amazon and they sent me another one, great customer service, but the replacement is doing the same thing. I feel terrible my son was so excited and this would have been perfect for him.

I purchased this for the purpose of chasing the geese off my property!!!! It works amazingly well!!! It is a bonus that it is waterproof since it has been in the lake a few times!!! I love it!!

The media could not be loaded. If I could give it more stars, I would. I got this for my Grandson for his 8th birthday and honestly didn't expect much for the price. It's awesome!!! It really is waterproof and is super fast on land! It was a hit!
