It would be nice if Toyota actually listened to its engineers, sales guys & customers over the IC counter balances.

Engineers moan about the awful brake set up / having to repeatedly adjust them.

Sales guys moan they loose orders due to the transmission & brake system Toyota insist on fitting.

Customers want hydrostatic transmission & brakes.

I still think Linde make the best IC counter balance machines, there much better laid out under the bonnet / easier to work on & thats coming from me a Toyota employee!

Fact of the week
The two internal cavities in our nose called nostrils function as separate organs. Each nostril has its own set of turbinates and olfactory receptors. The two independent organs work together through a mechanism called the nasal cycle, where one nostril is dominant for air intake while the other rests and is better at detecting scents.
