Control passes back and forth on this 12V ride on truck: a parent drives by 2.4G remote with 3 speed settings, or flips to battery operated mode where the child works a switch with 2 forward and 2 reverse settings. Soft start and soft stop ease it into motion instead of jerking. Two children ride the 19-in bench with belts, and toys go in the rear box or the front compartment. Music and stories play over USB and TF, LED lights come on, and a pull handle tows the 52-lb truck back when the charge ends.
