Awyeah. I remember those.

Of course if you spend too much time skidding like that, you'd wear out one particular piece of the edge of the wheel (because that's where it would always end up when you pushed forward with one foot)... I don't recall seeing many Big Wheels or their relatives that _didn't_ have a front wheel that was far from round.

Thank you, Tom, for giving me something to do for over an hour this evening.....Scary the number of 1976 or later commercials that I remember.

I lusted after those! I had a big wheel.

We had a collection of big wheels, like you do when you have 3 kids roughly similar in age. The Green Machine was by far the coolest.

Heh

My brother had one of these, while us girls had to settle for Big Wheels.

We still had fun though.
