I am thinking about ordering this for my son for the wooded area in our yard. Can this buggy go over dirt mounds and tree roots?

dirt mounds are no problem. tree roots if they are partially exposed, a fully exposed root of large size would probably pose a problem. this thing is very fast.

It def can.. it works great especially with a fully charged battery.. it takes a beating.. try to buy a spare battery as well .. it was a great investment.. this car is super fast so make sure you tweek the remote

These are very fast. Going over a bump our root at full speed will result in the rc going airborne. You may have some problems hitting trees resulting in parts breaking. They are highly repairable similar to what you would but at a hobby store. I have modified one of mine after things falling off.

For certain this will go over dirt mounds. Tree roots I am not sure about. I suppose that would depend on clearance. If it were gradual I would say yes. Guessing the car could handle a root an inch or two high.

Although not all terrain I live in an area with dirt roads and trails and have installed dirt tires and tubes. It works great in both love the trike for all terrain , street, and I have been running my dog with it also.

It moves nicely over any terrain . I wouldn't take it over really deep soft sand though. Tires too narrow. A great folding cart though.

I tested mine out in my back yard grass when I first got it. Was a bit dry due our drought but the nibbed tires worked great. Started at one end and the thing had the front wheels up halfway across the yard. Might have gone further but it didn't want to crash it into the fence. My front yard is thick lush grass and I chase the wild turkeys and run circles around them with it until they decide to fly to get away. Great fun. It will pull the wheels up out in the front as well.

I LOVE my Mountain Buggy, it is great in grass and all terrain. My complaints on it would be that when you are going off a curb or a tilt you have to be careful because it is 3 wheeled and easily can go from 3 - 2 if not careful. Also when the second child is still in the cocoon I found that the head was lower than her feet and therefor not super comfy for her, she was long also so her head was right at the back of the first seat. Now that they are both older 2.5 and 9 months I really like it and the child in the back doesn't ever complain. For 30 min running in the stroller I think it would be a great stroller. I always have people come and ask me about mine because it is the same size as a single and not bulky at all! Worth every penny.

The flatter the and smoother the surface, the better it will drive. But it does drive pretty well on grass. I got it for my nephew for his 1st birthday and we had his birthday party at a park. The grass was pretty tall. For a little quad, it has some power to it. Hope that helps!

Generally yes, sometimes soft dirt will sink the wheels. Lawns are really easy.

I use it on light dirt trails The tires are a little skinny for this, but it's doable. I put a tire with a little more tread on it, but I haven't tried it yet, but I expect it will be better.

It's very small I don't think it would work well on grass or gravel. We used it in the house or on black top.

At this scale it does not fair too well on tall grass or thick cut brush. It either gets stuck due to clearance or doesn't have much control because it's hopping. It does great on dirt, pavement or anywhere clearance is not an issue. It's a lot of power for such a small truck and totally worth the price.

Yes. My daughter rides hers over similar terrain, and it performs very well!

It has 4 height settings. One runs on the skids and digs in just a bit, one runs slightly higher, one is high and used mostly for transport and the other 'floats' and follows the terrain. I use the last one mostly, even though it digs a little near a couple of ruts, doesn't kick up enough gravel to hurt anything. I have a gravel drive too, but right now it's more like a hard pack dust:). Better fix that in the spring. Oh, you can set the runner (skid) height too.

Yes, it drives great on grass! That's the majority of where my 2.5 yo son uses it. In our backyard. Even reverse is strong on grass!

I sit on mine (on dirt or bark mulch) all the time and I've never had a problem. It moves around just fine. I don't try to roll all the way across the yard while still on it because I think my weight could cause it to sink it in where the dirt is softer. I love this thing...it's a real back saver, and I like that I can put my tools and extra stuff under the seat, so they're always with me as I move around the yard.

If the yard is a generally flat surfaced then it will do a fine job but if the yard is problemed with heaving ground then it will pretty much stay bumpy and will be needing a grading leveling approach. Hope this is of some help.

I guess that depends on what you mean by offroad. On compacted dirt I think it would do okay, probably not so good on gravel or sand or loose dirt.

No. It will drive ok on flat parts of your yard but will not have enough traction for any kind of incline. This was stil the case after I added rubber traction bands to the back wheels.
