How does he like it? Looking at buying one for my boys 3rd birthday.
That is an awesome idea!!! Wish I would have thought about it.
He loves it, and drives it almost every day. We live in a big cul-de-sac and everyone has young kids. There is very little traffic and everyone drives really slow because of the kids, so we let him drive it in the circle. In fact, we don't let him drive on the lawn. Sidewalk, driveway and street only. I know we're unusual for telling him to get off the lawn and go play in the street...
Another kid almost exactly his age has one too, and they are out there driving them around all the time. The optima battery is awesome in it. It fits perfectly in the front compartment, but you can't put the "hood" on. The stock battery lasts for an hour or so before needing to be charged, but the Optima just goes forever.
