Disclosure of Material Connection: I received one or more of the products or services mentioned for free in the hope that I would mention it on my blog. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers. I am disclosing this in accordance with the Federal Trade Commission’s 16 CFR, Part 255: “Guides Concerning the Use of Endorsements and Testimonials in Advertising.”The Hess Truck has been a Christmas staple in our family for years. When my boys were younger, my dad started the tradition of getting a Hess Truck every year. I honestly have no idea how many they have, they are all kept at my parent’s house! As the boys got older the tradition stopped but we still loved going to Hess to see the newest truck each year.

Back in the good ole days, you had to get to Hess as soon as the trucks were released because they sold out fast. Now, unfortunately, the sport in that is gone as you can buy them online at HessToyTruck.com. This year there are 2 Hess Trucks available the standard one which I am giving away and the Collector’s Edition.

About the 2014 Hess Truck

The 2014 Hess Toy Truck is a space cruiser, with retractable landing gear, flashing lights and button-activated and motion-activated sound effects, riding on top of a flatbed truck. A cargo door on the space cruiser opens to reveal the scout that features folding wings and working lights. The flatbed truck doubles as a launch pad complete with a button-activated launch ramp with hydraulic lift, 3 realistic sound effects and 41 lights. Chrome detailing on the cab includes an embossed “50” to officially mark the Hess Toy Truck’s 50th anniversary.

Mom Maven’s Thoughts

I was so excited when the trucks arrived. They even came wrapped in green wrapping paper! I gave the package to Jordan, my 19yo and told him to open it. I wish I had my camera ready because his smile was HUGE! He set right out to playing with the truck, just like he did when he was 10. Later I sent him outside to take the photos and video for this post. I think he could have played with that truck all day long. It was nice to see some the childlike wonder and excitement that the Hess Truck and memories of Christmases past brought to his face. Soon the 2014 truck will takes its place among the rest of the collection and all will be well in the Hess Truck world.
