A gear-shift handle beside the seat gives this 12V ride on tractor two forward gears and one reverse, a step up from the single go button most first vehicles use. The trailer detaches, so the tractor runs 33.5 in on its own or stretches to 53 in when hauling toys, grass, or straw across the yard. Battery mode offers high and low speeds while the 2.4G remote adds three, and soft start keeps acceleration from startling a three year old. LED lights cover dusk, and the wide belted seat carries up to 66 lbs ASTM certified.
