My goodness. Where do some people think market share numbers come from? Market Share is based on what "CUSTOMERS" are buying !! If you don't like what they are buying then take it up with them. Quit blaming the companies they are buying from.

I believe the average forklift buyer has their own companies best interests in mind when they select a vendor. I believe the average buyer is intelligent and well informed by the time they make a decision on whose forklift to buy. Some folks clearly think the average forklift buyer is none of those things listed above. And that poor attitude towards their customer base is reflected in THEIR companies Market Share results.
