Bob The Builder, can he fix it? He sure can! Well, if Bob is given the brand new and rather nifty looking fork lift truck which not only is pedal powered, will also help save the world.

This is the pedal-powered, ride-on version of a Linde 394 forklift that raises and lowers at its driver's command. Made in Germany, its lifting fork is raised by turning a hand crank and held into place with a locking lever, tilting slightly backward to keep an included plastic 6 1/2 lb. capacity pallet stable, just like a real forklift. 

Pedals power the forklift forward and backwards with a precisely engineered chain drive, its integrated eccentric keeps the chain taut for efficient power transfer to the rear axle. The four plastic tires have rubber traction strips. Its squat, robust chassis is made from sturdy ABS plastic while its axles, steering rod, and pedals are made from durable steel. Its seat adjusts to a rider's height (maximum height of 55") and locks into place to keep children safe while riding. It can supports up to 110 lbs. 

A little sssembly required. Suitable for ages 3 and up. Dimension about 41" L X 22" W X 51" H. Weight 25 lbs. Priced at a little bit over USD 300.
