While many classic toys are now mass-produced using cheaper materials (primarily plastic), this Tonka truck’s quality construction is preserved. Although the wheels and frame of this dump truck are made of plastic, it is of a heavy, durable weight and suitable for the muddy or wet territories that this truck is sure to encounter. The dump bed, however, is made of heavy-duty steel--just the way parents will remember this toy. This massive truck measures 18 inches long and is a hulking 11-1/4 inches tall with an enormous dump bed that can haul and dump overwhelming piles of dirt, cedar chips, or toys. A plastic handle on the front of the dump bed provides a sturdy grip for tilting the bed to drop a heavy load and ease the bed back to a horizontal position again. Rugged 6-1/2-inch tires enable this truck to scale (and potentially flatten) towering mountains of sand at the beach or rocky, mountainous terrain at the park. Tonka stand behind the durability of this toy by covering it with a full lifetime warranty. --Cristina Vaamonde

Customer ReviewsImproves on an already excellent original By Red Harvest (Georgia, USA)
Believe it or not, this one is even better than the original Tonka Mighty Dump Truck. I had already bought my kids one of the classic Tonka Mighty Dump Trucks like I had as a boy. (The youngest was tearing around with it in the sand box, across the drive, everywhere, basically like I had.) I didn't intend to buy this new bigger one, I was just going to buy the Road Grader and Quarry Truck Pack. By a stroke of fortune the store was giving that pack away with this new Toughest Mighty Truck for about the same price, so I figured, "Wow, free truck!" and plopped it in the cart. Turns out that it would have been well worth it regardless.
I had seen this newer monster sized version, but wasn't sure what to make of it. This one is well thought out, and Tonka really did improve on the existing design. The larger, wider size makes it even better for little ones to push around as fast as their legs will go. It has fewer angled corners so wipeouts are less likely to draw blood/raise a lump than the older ones. The new handle at the top of the dump is great for dragging in and out of the sand box, storage box, etc. The open cab works better for some construction action figures (if you can find them.) Fits great in a 6'x6' sandbox and would do well in a 4'x4'. On top of the functionality, in ways it looks more like the newer more massive real life loaders in service now.
The only potential negative is that it is so large that it is probably overwhelming in small sandboxes. This also means that even high lifting loader toys will have trouble dumping into the bed without a ramp or a bit of "air time." Hasn't slowed my little ones down yet, though.
Now, if Tonka would just bring back the old 3920 Mighty Loader...
