Default anyone have a Plasmacar (toy vehicle)?

They are a blast. Even for adults. Great for kids. We have friends that have one, and I love it. You move the steeringwheel back and forth and it propels you forward sort of like if you were on skates.

Lord help me but I'm going to agree with you. My son has one and it's probably one of the cooler things we've ever bought for him.

you weigh over 200 right? It's rated to 200lb. You should try to lose some weight so you can ride it.

We have one but my daughter is still leary of it. The first time we tried it she crashed going down our driveway and I accidently stepped on her hand when I was trying to help her.

I believe it's rated for 220 and I know through personal experience that it will handle 240. Albeit a bit sluggishly.

BTW, you're telegraphing your plays. I knew this was coming even before I posted my message.
