I need to purchase a forklift. Stuck between Daewoo and Hyster. I need a 5000lb lift, propane and/or gas, side shift, white tires, bla bla bla.

Found a 2000 Daewoo, 1400 hrs., prop/gas, $12,400.

Also found a 2001 Hyster, same stats, except it has 8100 hrs., and costs $6950.00.

What is the better brand? Is 8100 too many hours? I have $12,000.00 to spend.
