Well, Santa brought my sone a John Deere Gator ride on toy for Christmas (courtesy of grandpa), and it is a 12 volt riding toy. It has 2 forward speeds and 1 reverse.
Today was a nice day outside, not too cold so we went out for a walk and he drove the Gator. At first we had it in low gear, and we were doing a nice walk around the neighborhood, and then Sean discovered the HIGH GEAR!!! He looked back over his shoulder at me and said "Daddy, I go real fast!" and then he was off, D@MN!!! THAT ah heck CAN MOVE!!!
My fat butt had to jog to keep up with him as we motored on down the road torwards the stopsign. As we approached the stopsign I told him to stop, which he did do, but because he was going to make a left turn, that thing fish tailed and he laughed his butt off.
If this is any indication of what he will be like when he is old enough to drive, he will not be getting the keys to the car. 😉
