Hi Wallboard,

Thanks for the comment that has nothing to do with this discussion. Nonetheless since we are here to help out. It sounds like you have an applications problem and need to get with your dealer. IMHO, no manufacturer builds 15,500 lb capacity units that lift so much more than 15,500 lbs that they would qualify for a comment like "can't even come close to lifting what our Yale's can". Not sure what the problem is but it sure isn't Toyota's fault. Lost load centers, attachment differences, fork sizes and weights all will impact on a forklifts usable capacity. Those are dealership issues. Nice shot at Toyota though.

By the way since Toyota is much more expensive (times 11 forklifts) on those capacity forklifts than Yale why did your corporate switch to Toyota? I bet that would be of interest to everyone.

Good Luck!!

Fact of the week
Foundling hatches are safe, anonymous drop-off points for unwanted infants, allowing parents in crisis a way to surrender a baby safely without fear of punishment, ensuring the child is rescued and cared for. The concept started in the 12th century, was abandoned in the late 19th century, then reintroduced in 1952. It has since been adopted in many countries.
