Discussion:
Average operating hours - replacement cycles

I am doing a bit of research on replacement cycles for reachstackers - and the major decision drivers for replacement (cost/efficiency). What are your experiences wrt:
1) Average annual operating hours for your full/empty reachstackers? - lets say application in terminal/port intermodal set-up,
2) Replacement cycle for same (in hours)?
3) Do you use any efficiency/cost driven models to help you with the replacement/rebuild decisions?

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
