How Old for a motorized toy car?
My bil has wanted to get our little guy one o f these things since he turned 1. I told him I'd let him buy it when little guy turns 5. Now he's bugging me about getting one for Christmas. I think he's still too young at two and a half
What do you guys think?

DS got one for his first birthday. It's a yellow sports car. It's cool for him because it can either be driven by him or by an adult with a remote control.

I got my girls one for Christmas 3 years ago when they were 2 and 3 years old. My now 1 year old(20 months old) loves it. Not too young at all. My 6 year old is starting to get bored of it.

DS got the tot rod at 1 its great BC it doest go too fast! It has a parent bar that is removable that also has a button to use the motorized function.
As for a true power wheels I think 3-3.5 at minimum. I have been at play dates where younger kids actually ran over other kids. My 4yo hurt himself this summer when he crashed and gave himself a bloody lip. They really can be dangerous if the kids don't understand how to steer, stop etc.
