True North Bricks
“The Ice-Cream Truck is certainly a niche-interest set. However, it comes at a good value and features many fun details. The Minifigures need more printing, but the accessory count and brick:fig ratios are great. I am a city-builder, so this set struck a chord with me. I was... More not disappointed, and I think this is a great kit.”

“It's always nice to see LEGO City sets which offer something beyond the almost constant stream of police and fire sets. There are a fair few stickers but they really add to the fun of the set, I especially like how they match up with the actual ice cream elements inside the... More van.”

About City Traffic

Traffic is the everyday side of LEGO City, the cars, trucks and service vehicles of ordinary city life, and it started in 2007 with working vehicles such as a cement mixer, a recycling truck and a heavy hauler. Garbage trucks, tow trucks, car transporters and campers come back every few years, and food trucks have become a habit, from pizza vans to an ice-cream truck. The road itself changed in 2021, when 60304 Road Plates brought in snap-together road plates that took over from the printed road baseplates LEGO had made for decades. LEGO's own delivery vans and trucks have also turned up as sets, in the company's red and yellow colours.

Traffic was introduced in 2007 and currently consists of 103 sets. As of today, 7642 Garage is the most valuable Traffic set with an estimated new/sealed value of $364.
Summary
City Traffic Ice-Cream Truck set 60253 was released on January 2, 2020, retailing for $20, it has since been retired. New, unopened sets are valued at $38, while used sets sell around $12.
