I will agree with Mr. Toyotaman. The 8-series is a strong, good product. I have a lot of colleagues that use Toyota and love them. I personally am a Hyster user and like them for the simple fact of the dealership I use. Plus, the new Fortis series is a good machine. I run 17 different facilities in OR, WA, & northern CA & Hyster always has the part, rental machine, or service tech when I need them. Plus, Hyster parts are reasonalbly priced, something I cannot say about the Toyota machines. Their parts seem pretty expensive from what I have encountered.
Otherwise Toyota is a good mfg & they do have a good product. But, everyone's truck has to be decent anymore, otherwise they wouldn't be around. Best advice from me would be to find a dealership that cares, no matter what the brand is, like I have done.
