Last place I worked at was a steel mill, coil and bar stock and the buyer I replaced had a file cabinet full or past invoices for repairs. After looking at them for weeks it was a combination of abuse (30%) and the wrong truck for the application. Looked at what my industry was using and contacted Taylor and took a plant tour in Mississippi and was overwhelmed at the quality of the product and employees. Taylor was the right truck for our application and we bought
seven 36,000 pound trucks. It all depends on the application,ours was extreme and was killing our other 36,000 pound trucks who's name I won't say for the fact they are a good trucks for there application. Use your head and do your homework and NETWORK with the right people.

Thanks,
Ray
