Just for the record when it comes to narrow aisle, class II products both Raymond & Crown have the market wrapped up 60% +. Yale has been in the market a long time & Hyster first got into class II when they bought Lewis Sheppard. Neither the Nacco twins market share added together come close to either Raymond or Crown individually. Greater market share translates to greater customer acceptance. Customer make teh lift truck world go around - buy trucks, pay for service, buy parts In Class III ,Yale many, many moons ago had the lions share but Crown leap frogged them in a big way with better product & quality & not by low $$ (like MPB or what ver Hyster calls it)).
