Tonka Tough Truck Adventures: The Biggest Show On Wheels is a 2004 computer-animated direct-to-video film, the third and last movie (after two animated Hanna-Barbera films in the 1980s) to use the Tonka IP. The film features Tonka Joe, the mascot for the toy line, representing Team Tonka in an elite all-terrain truck-racing competition against the egotistical Robert B. Quick.
Tonka Tough Truck Adventures: The Biggest Show On Wheels contains examples of:
- Broken Pedestal: Joe is this to Bobby after the first race, where he forfeits the race to save Quick's life but is condemned by the news anchor as a cheater.
- Double Standard: Joe is thrown under the bus by the news anchor for allegedly trying to run Quick off the course, while Quick actually ramming Joe off the road in the first race goes unnoticed.
- Drives Like Crazy: Quick almost drives off the road distracted, knocks down an entire pier, and almost dies on several occasions.
- Noodle Incident: The audience is informed of an accident involving a dam owned by Quick's company during a news interview. Quick interrupts the interview and we never hear anything more about the incident.
