Little Tikes Pickup Truck

In the years since the its 1979 debut of the wildly popular Cozy Coupe’s 1979 debut, Little Tikes has followed up with the rollout of a multitude of new play vehicles for kids. This includes a few trucks, among them a Little Tikes pickup truck model called the Classic Pickup Truck.

The Classic Pickup Truck, great for kids ages 2 to 5, is a stylin’ one-passenger toy truck that the driver enters through either of the two doors and sits in a comfy driver’s seat, then scoots to and fro with his or her feet. It’s available for just $99.99.

The truck sports a flashy black exterior with bold multicolour-pastel racing stripes spanning both sides. Some people describe these stripes as a very vintage look, reminiscent of fast cars from the 1970s and 1980s, so the “classic” namesake is highly appropriate.

The Classic Pickup Truck’s flatbed in back has a drop-down tailgate to allow for easy loading up of any toys the young driver wants to tote along for the ride. The truck is sturdy enough and this back flatbed is spacious enough that even another kid could ride in it, assuming that second kid is a toddler and the kid who drives is old enough to propel the two of them.

The whole truck weighs in at 34 pounds, just heavy enough that a kid with strong legs could handle this without too much trouble. Needless to say, this truck is very much in keeping with the Little Tikes tradition of toys that provide great exercise as well as great fun.

There is also a gas cap that opens and closes for added effect, and a working horn on the steering wheel. The truck gets more points for visual appeal with the realistic imitation-chrome front grill and detailed headlight and tail-light decals.

Some assembly is required. But that’s only if you buy it brand-new from a store. Keep in mind that like all Little Tikes vehicles, this Little Tikes pickup truck has a lot of buyers. That means you can find more than a few used ones in good condition at garage sales or buy them online from previous owners. As long as you check to make sure it’s in good shape before you buy it, this will be a great way to get your Little Tikes pickup truck ready-made and set for play, without the hassle of putting it together.
