electek,
Are you on crack? The turret market? Jungheinrich's only problem is no dockstocker?

How about Jungheinrich's parts are ridiculously priced. $150 for a load wheel for a pallet truck! When Crown charges about $35 for the same part. HELLO!

European engineering is great, I think their products are WAY ahead of anything else but they need to wake up. Consumable parts need to be competitively priced. You absolutely cannot charge 400% more for parts just because you "think" your parts are better. Come on. Jungheinrich, Still, Linde and any other European manufacturer will never outpace Toyota, Nissan, Hyster or anyone else in the US until they get a US mindset.

I work for a Jungheinrich dealer. $1900 for an on board charger for the small 4500lb pallet jack? You have got to be kidding.
