Luxury Tricycle Sells For $180 - Kiddie SUV? - $800
<snip>

If Mom has a BMW and dad drives a Mercedes, what's left for Junior?

The Wall Street Journal reported that one of the hottest yuppie rides is the Kettler luxury tricycle.

The deluxe Air Jumbo version retails for about $180 and is even targeted by thieves.

But that's not nearly the top end of the market. Kettler is introducing its version of the SUV for the pint-sized set.

The Nevada pedal-powered all-terrain vehicle even has a trailer hitch.

Sticker price for the luxury kiddy car: $800.

1. Some kids would be happy with
a hug and a nutritious meal once a day.

The more you have, the less you become.

6. Who is the bigger thief?
The brat who steals the trikey, or the company that sells such foreign-made bottom-penny pompous garbage at inflated prices? :shrug:
