Real Wheels, also known as There Goes a..., is a collection of children's videos for children ages 3–8 years old that features a specified vehicle and the various jobs that it has along with real people who work the job which requires the vehicle. Episodes like There Goes a Garbage Truck, There Goes the Mail and There Goes a Rescue Vehicle, were released as a part of the series. Each episode focuses on different transportation vehicles, however, one episode is reserved for Santa Claus, and another for roller coasters. Each is live-action, starring Dave Hood, and is sometimes accompanied by Becky Borg. Dave Hood does not appear in There Goes a Farm Truck, Tractor and Dump Truck (he possibly was taking a break) and was substituted by Dave Sidoni, but comes back in Here Comes a Roller Coaster.
The series of videos revolved around Dave (and sometimes with Becky) in new jobs that center around the vehicles being featured. Dave and Becky always reminded kids that they did not have respective jobs, but the real workers had agreed for them to pretend for the day so that the viewers could learn about the vehicles being featured as well as learn a little more about the jobs the vehicles serve. While the most part of the videos focused on showing how the vehicles worked and what they can do, in some episodes predictably Dave would get into trouble (example: accidentally knocking down a building in There Goes a Bulldozer) and deliver his catchphrase, "Doh! I shouldn't have done that!".
In these videos, the hosts talked about how the vehicles worked, the history of the vehicle featured and talked to real people who worked in their fields.
The majority of the episodes take place in San Diego, Los Angeles and Ontario California at locations such as Union Station, the USS Kitty Hawk, and Ontario International Airport.
