I looked on the web site and without any knowledge of this product I suggest that you should get the Gaucho Super Power model (24V).

Very nice, but I can't get past the cost, ouch! Mason's birthday is in 9 days but be won't be getting that unless there's an ebay or craigslist find.
 
Holy crap! I never would have guessed. That's too cool.

Later,
 
Look at the build-up thread for the Gaucho. This is going to be sick!

He is turning it into a R/C Rock Crawler! Looks like he is already working on the SAS.

Modified Power Wheels - 4x4 gaucho rock crawler

:hhmm:

Might be a fun little project, then we can have crawling competitions with them at the event. :idea:
 
I just couldn't resist!

These are both jerps, but check out the mods.

Video #1: Super-Charged with a Lift!



Video #2: Here's one with two kids rock crawling. They even get a spot from dad.

 
More options

I too wanted to find one similar for my son. They have the base model:Peg-Perego Gaucho Rock'in at KBtoys.com, and then they have one with all of the bells and whistles:Peg-Perego: Gaucho Superpower Ride-On at KBtoys.com.

Upgrades include:

dual 24-volt high-performance motor
three-speed gearshift
variable speed foot accelerator that moves the Gaucho 2.5, 5 or 7.5 mph forward or 2.5 mph in reverse; and high-speed lockout
rubberized tires
disk brakes
rear suspension
adjustable padded seats
rearview mirrors
seatbelts
electronic radio
working horn and glove compartment
Holds up to 130 pounds.

MSRP: $850


A little too pricey for me, but I wish my kid had one of those. With rubber tires he could even drive it on paved surfaces. Huge improvement over the power wheels of the past.


Dual motors, disc brakes???

cheers,
chuck
 
Good stuff!
So was that a log crossing or a rail slide?

HIGH CENTERED....

just like his Daddy driving the mule.
 
He got it... He got to the obstacle and started heating the tires... make'm stickies
 
awesome!

now it needs some mods! before you buy a battery for it look on the website that werd posted. its where I went for parts and a battery source.

Helmet is really not a bad idea, Mason already rolled his tractor... but he is tougher now. thought about moddin the tractor but it can already pop a wheelie. its LIGHT!
 
Chris, You got a replacement for those slicks?
