Just today I've seen in person, and heard running the new Crown C-5. I understand the skepticism of a company whose name is only big in narrow isle electric trucks, and that's only natural. But plain and simple, this looks and sounds like a pretty sweet ride. Also, I've worked on lots of Cats, A/C, Daewoo, and Clark gas trucks. Everything on the C-5 is the most maintence-friendly that I've ever seen. Change the water pump without dropping the counterweight....and the O2 sensor comes out in 45 seconds. I almost hope they break down so I get to turn a wrench on it some time soon :-)

Fact of the week
The dot-com bubble, a period of large and rapid investments in internet-based companies, peaked in 2000 and saw the Nasdaq Composite index rise by 579%. Then the bubble imploded. As the value of tech stocks plummeted, cash-strapped internet start-ups became worthless and collapsed.
