By the way,Mr.FORMER certified red tech.I was at a huge warehouse where a few red reach trucks appeared.The masts made metal and cracked from day one.The outriggers bent and twisted inside of a year.Those 50,000 hour Hysters never had those problems.They got in the door because they were cheap.
I have noticed red technicians do a lot of painting.Every time they P.M. a truck ( one of theirs only ). Paint ,paint ,paint.What are they covering up anyway? I personally think it is a psyco / illusion their management came up with so their trucks appear to be holding up.
