I know Eastern Lift Truck well (since theri A/C days) and what you said about them is right on the money. The late Mr. John Pruitt instilled this attitude and discipline in his organization from day one. And young (he's not young any more but younger than me) Mike P has followed the teaching of his Dad well.

Tell Mike that this message is from the guy who announced ELT as an Top Ten Dealer award receipient while he was taking a nature break (too many beers I'm told) at a Komatsu dealer meeting in Atlanta.

Fact of the week
Brothers Adolf ("Adi") and Rudolf ("Rudi") Dassler split their shoe company after WWII due to a bitter feud, and established the rival companies of Adidas and Puma. Their personal animosity and business rivalry divided their German hometown Herzogenaurach. The town became known as "the town of bent necks" due to the intense loyalty to each brand.
