The present went over VERY well. I think that my son was kinda scared of it at first due to the massive hugeness of it. When I plugged in the battery pack and it began making noise he overcame his initial fear. He lunged at it and said "ME LOVE THIS TRUCK THANK YOU SANTA!".
He's not very good at the controls though :( He's a bit too young to be able to manipulate both the forward/reverse and the left/right sticks at the same time, and it really frustrates him. He often hands the controls to me and just tells me where he wants his truck to go, giggling the whole time. He does like pushing the horn button on the remote though.
He gave the truck a kiss and a hug before he went to bed.
I'm pretty sure my wife hates this truck because it is ungodly loud, but she adores the fact that my son really appreciates it.
