Amazon.com Product Description:
Lightening, Mack, and Doc are ready for action! This "wheelie" big playset was inspired by the hit Disney/Pixar movie, CARS. The main attraction is Mack, the giant 24-inch long hauler that can be played with as a semi-trailer all by itself. But if you're looking for racing fun, then pop Mack's trailer open to reveal three play sets conveniently stored inside. The first of these is a very bumpy ride indeed. While is it's torn up condition, Lightning and Doc Hudson can pretend to be doing off-road stunts for the movies. When the duo is ready for a smoother pavement, they can enlist the help of Bessie to restore the road to its previous glory. 24-inch-long Mack offers plenty of fun on his own. Open Mack up to find three road play options. Lightning McQueen is one of the included vehicles. And when that happens, what smoother asphalt can be found than at the racetrack? Speed over to the oval track for tight turns, multiple laps, and race to determine which car has the stamina to make it to the finish line. Plenty can play at this track, and with all the fun of going round in circles no one will even be paying attention to who's winning. After the excitement of the racetrack, take a leisurely drive down the highway. The scenic route has cactus plants, desert views, and a slight incline for speeding up or slowing down. Once you've cooled down from a thoroughly enjoyable cruise on the highway, top off the gas tank because more fun is in store. Head back to Mack's center where a "launcher" is waiting to send you off on an adventure. The launcher sends off your car on its own chosen path, and this random act is sure to delight even the adults who are along for the ride. The Pitcrew Performance Playset comes with big Mack, a Lightning McQueen vehicle, a Doc Hudson vehicle, and a Bessie vehicle. The set requires three AAA batteries, which are included.

disappointing:
This truck looked like so much fun, but we're really disappointed. The pieces of the truck do not stay together, whether set up as a race track, or in truck form. It's very frustrating for me, let alone my son. I'm about to throw the whole thing away.

VERY Poor Construction/Quality:
Too bad Mattel didn't spend as much money on the design/construction of this toy as they did advertising it to our kids! My 6 year old son kept seeing the commercials for this toy and it was "all he wanted!" We bought it for him and within ten minutes the toy was broken. We couldn't latch the back parts of Mack's truck. With it unlatched, my son couldn't "drive" it around the floor. My very upset son got frustrated when I told him I was going to take it back. What a waste of my time and money Mattel!

My son loves it!!!:
My son really enjoys this toy, but often gets frustrated when it doesn't stay together well. It can be aggravating--you have to get it just right for the trailer not to fall apart easily. I had to figure out on my own how the trailer locks together. It can be tricky! My son is good at figuring out how things work so the frustration doesn't come as frequently as when he first got it for Christmas.

Fun, but hard to put back together!:
This was a Christmas gift for our 7 year old. He played with it a lot at first, but doesn't seem to get it out much anymore. We wish it was built a little sturdier. It doesn't seem to latch together very easily when you try to put it all away. But when he does get it all out, he plays with it for a long time and has a lot of fun!

Disappointed quality:
I bought this toy for my 3 year old son who absolutley loves anything Cars. I think the idea behind this toy is excellent. With that said, the quality of it is very poor and the design could use some tweeking. Some of the parts do not securely stay in their respective positions. The plastic is flimsy. The sides are difficult to put back in the trailor position. I am not sure if I would buy this toy now that I know the quality of it.
