I cant stand pure Toyota counter balances full stop.
Awful to work on, no design thought on maintenance, old fashioned drum brakes with auto transmission.

Cesab make a better counter balance then Toyota, at least Cesab listened to the engineers feedback & made improvements to the design when they released a new model.

Give me a Linde IC truck any day of the week, bombproof reliability, easy to work on due to the design team using there brains & hydrostatic drive / brakes.

SAS is really just a sales gimmick, yes it does do what it says on the tin BUT Toyota product quality these days is awful, people still fall for the Toyota badge image / name.
