Description
Oh, Lord, did I play the hell out of this! When you're a little kid and can't drive a real car, this is the next-best thing. My parents found one at a garage sale and it worked. I covered many miles with this on the dining-room table. (Naturally, I had to take it apart temporarily to see how it worked.)

I thought this was the best toy!!! I as well thought this was the best toy ever. I now would like to find another for my daughter. They don't make toys like they used to anymore... what a shame. Also Atari 2600!

This toy was so much fun. I enjoyed having the "gas" pedal on the floor to push.

I love all the comments. Exactly how I feel. This was one of my FAVORITE toys growing up. I was hoping a pic was posted. Brings back memories for sure. I agree toys aren't made like they used to be.

I was just at my parents for Christmas and I saw a picture of this, man did it bring back memories. What a great toy, I believe that I get it for Christmas when I was five. Who remembers the magnet and chain under the cardboard roads?

I was telling my son today it was my most favorite toy when I was a kid. I got mine for Christmas too and could play with it all day. Does anyone know what toy company made it?

I had so much fun with this toy! I loved setting up the hazards cones and trying to get my little car to drive around them.

Just put one up on eBay but the motor doesn't work. I'm sure its fixable. Used to be mine and it worked the last time I played with it. Just years of sitting in my mother's attic have probably dried the motor out. If someone is handy the car, key bridge and a couple of hazards are still with it. I put it up tonight.

This was my all-time favorite toy as a kid. I spent hours playing with it. One day my friend came over and ended up breaking it, but I'll never forget how much fun I had with it.

I'm looking for one for my favorite cousin's 50th birthday. To this day she teases me about my having the "deluxe" model and how jealous she was of that! I'd love to surprise her with one of her own. I'm looking for a very clean one,working parts don't really concern me as long as its clean and intact. My e-mail is stelee@rcn.com.Please,if you do have one,put u-drive it in the subject box. Thank you, Laura
