Now wait a minute, if the Yale dealership is going to be able to handle the influx of Hysters accounts, why would you put your money on them failing? Also Yale does sell the big trucks locally, (GDP250-GDP200). Theres a lot of businesses locally that I know of that have Yale units over 25000lbs. I believe Hyster has better name recognition nationally, but Yale is known for "giving away" its trucks on new sales orders just to get the buisness. Also NACCO has invested alot of money in R+D for the new Yale AC units, (Reach and OP). Granted Nacco also invested heavily in the new Hyster AC 3-wheeler as well. I guess we will just have to wait and see which dealership has the biggest "war chest" and wins out. I want to agree with you on Yale going away, but I think locally Yale is in a better position finacially to flex its muscle.
