4 yr old enjoys October 7, 2008
Almost too much info., does seem to drag on for mom but my 4 yr. old enjoys watching it.
 annoying and irresponsible September 25, 2008
There is way too much mindless chitchat between the two hosts. My 20 month old makes me fast-forward all the talking bits until an actual truck is shown. Don't talk down to kids...they hate it even at a young age. And it drives adults crazy! Also, there are several instances when the hosts are rude and snarky to each other or doing something stupidly dangerous in order to get a laugh....for instance: host Dave gets blasted with a fire hose and he falls down, host Becky gets dumped into the back of the dump truck, Dave gets dumped, too, and then the two jump out of a big garbage truck and when it starts to roll away without a driver, they chase after it.
Okay, so my kid doesn't really get all that yet, but still. What's the point of doing all that? There are some really good bits about where the recycling goes....these nice informative parts could be better explored with Dave (who has a nice announcer's voice) doing a voice over. Stay behind the camera Dave, and better editing would be good, too. Also, don't let the untrained professionals (like the firefighters and garbage dudes) ramble on and on about their profession without a script; and if they stutter or stumble, then for chrissakes, reshoot it. Really lame waste of $10. Will not be showing it to my kid again if only to save my own sanity, and to prevent him from acting like a buffoon like the hosts.
 Review, There Goes a Truck September 6, 2008
We first found this video (now DVD) when my now 12-year-old son was a toddler. My son fell completely in love with the series, and we are happily passing the tradition along to children of friends. Dave and Becky are very funny, and appeal to kids of all ages (including grownups). It's a series of DVDs that is not annoying for adults, and keeps kids mesmerized. Enjoy!

Great video for older kids but my 3 year old grandson looses interest
quick. This video is too mature for him. My mistake!
Not intended for adults June 26, 2008
While Dave is pretty annoying to most adults, kids love these videos. Just like most adults don't like shows such as Barney, they aren't made for adults. My boys would watch all the Real Wheels videos over & over all day long if they could. I highly recommend them, especially for the price.
