Yes it was a great move for GPEC. WIth there being so few Cat heavy Iron dealers left in the MCFA network. Cat inc will at sometime drop out of the deal with MITSI. Leaving only mitsi and jung with mcfa. THe jung product is great but very pricey and only certain customer will/can pay 20% premium for a lift.

NACCO has a solid product, shorter lead time for trucks, better pricing, 3x the market share as mcfa.

I don't see a reason why gpec would split off lift systems into it own company. I know lift one did it but when they did that but they split all the companys out as separate under one umbrella. There are reasons to do that I don't think that ownership at Poole want to do that. just a guess
