Seriously? (sigh)
 
Well, my sons B-day was two days ago and my wife and Ipurchased him this toddler RC car. My wife finally unboxed it today while I was finishing some honey do's.

Now, close your eyes......imagine hearing something similar to your tank in a home full of kids.....and your no where near it. Got the image yet? I'm sure your seeing red. That was me.

Anyway, when a toddlers toy sounds strikingly similar to your tank.....it's time to consider an elmod.

Yepper, I still have mixed emotions about this. I mean, I was relieved to see that it wasn't my tank.....yet, highly irritated. I just want to chuck this thing in the fireplace and pretend I never heard this. lol

Were did you get that car. It sounds better then a Heng Long!!!!!!!!!!!! Amplify that sound through a good speaker and I think it might sound decent. Does it just have an idle sound or does it rev up in motion.?

YHR, we got it at Target. Unfortunately it only has the idle sound and no volume control.But, it is most definitely as loud or louder than my HL.

LOL! Good humor is always great with a cup a joe. 

Here's another chuckle for ya,

 I am constantly having to correct my wife when she calls my tank a "toy."......this did not help my argument one bit.

What a riot! I wonder if HL considered that for the non smoke & sound tanks :)

Funny as hell! My daughter had that car from Target 2yrs ago, before I owned my first HL. I opened it up and cut the speaker wires within 15min of her driving it. All toys should be required to have a volume knob!
