Where I used to work in London we had professional machine movers come in to move a production line to a new factory and they all had older model forklifts to do the job and it looked to me because of the weight and power of the older units. These machines were well looked after and a source of much pride. Where I work now we have professional machine movers come in to move CNC machines around and what do they use? Older model forklifts with slant six motors in them that purr like kittens. New stuff is great but there's nothing like watching the older stuff doing the job day in day out.
