I don't see how adding a lower budget truck that may appeal to some operations would be a complete undoing of a conglomerate such as kion.

To me this is smart, now you have a line up to compete with everything. Is this not a good way to add more sales possibly to clientele you were overpriced for before?

I mean jeez man if the tc truck is a p.o.s. they can always say this is why we have this other more expensive truck we offered to you first.

Why do auto manufacturers build many different models instead of just one that is the "best" every user has a different agenda and budget. I need to get to my clients everyday but I dont use the most expensive most reliable most luxurious vehicle, I use what I can afford to even if it might not last as long or perform as well but it fits in my budget and gets the job done just as effectively.




Open your mind. Different strokes for different folks.
