I saw a Tonka commercial once. A Tonka dump truck and a real Haul truck that looked like the Tonka with the small cab on one side . The real truck had tires over 8 foot tall ( this was some time ago . The last Haul truck I was in had had tires over11 ft. tall. It was like driving a two story house from the balcony). Well they both drove off a 100 ft. cliff. The haul truck disintegrates on impact. The Tonka slams nose first into the ground , bounces, rolls about 3 times and lands on its wheels. The voice over says. "Tonka. ...still the toughest truck in the world." Great commercial.

My kids had those metal versions.. loved em.. one at least is still out in the sand box and gets some use from the next generation..

when tonka turned to plastic, the boys, then in early teens , took a couple dump trucks, one metal one plastic and raced them to the end of the roof, when the fell the 18 feet to the ground.. they found... amazing... both survived without a problem.. l

but a couple weeks later the plastic one lost its axel..

So both good toys, but the metal ones are somehow so much better to have..

Not sure these Mine, kids are normal.. they use busted cars/trucks in wh**ever game they are playing in the sandbox.. for a long time.. a disabled vehicle must be part of the adventure..LOL.. they have fun...
