Loved these as a kid.

Why are these police vehicles and not tankers though?

The price of gas being what it is, you need a police escort for the tanker.

I started buying these for my kids a few years ago. I used to love getting these when I was a kid. I am not a huge fan of this one. Last year had two roadsters and a truck carrying them

I was getting them too since I could remember, what sucked was not being able to play with them as a kid because they were “collectable”.

I loved getting these as a kid. This one looks pretty rad but has some serious "militarized police state" vibes.

I have a huge box in my basement full of years of Hess Trucks that are our 3 sons. We’re told to save them but wives I guess aren’t too thrilled storing them at their own homes. Hope they collect them before the eventual estate sale.

So is the Hess back and better than ever?

My dad started buying these before I was born (but he already had daughters) to give to me, starting with the initial year in '64 (I think). Once I was about five he started buying two - one for me to play with and one to save in an unopened box. I didn't know this at the time, but after my brother aged out of getting one, my dad kept buying these to keep an unbroken collection. I only found out a couple years ago when I saw one on my mother's sewing table and she told me she just got it.. she'd taken over buying one for the collection after my dad passed away.

Assuming they're still making them, I'll keep the tradition going once my mother passes away -there can't be very many people with mint condition trucks from every year they've been made.
