really to cover the low cost customer the C5 won't go down to the hamech price they have sense not
to try and compete with same truck. They are just going to damage Clark instead. Great deal for crown
not so good for Clark.

The real question is why would Crown continue the Hamech line when their C-5 was supposed to be the next greatest thing?????

Won't be good for Clark because it will cause a price drop when Hamech go up against Clark all they will do is force the price down. Not good for Clark Dealers at all bet there not happy there margins are being pushed down. Clark have not looked at this in the long run. Hamech only really sell in US so why would Clark need to go into one of there best supported markets with a competitor to there dealers
