Goodsense is a world brand with an established world market. Octane is a North American brand produced by Goodsense with a very specific build spec that elects to run premium parts such as the GM 3.0 and Cummins Turbo power plants, Cascade Side Shift, etc. Octane lifts are 50 state emission compliant allowing for direct import etc. That US specific development cost a lot to develop and test, making entry into the US slower then other countries. However no expense was spared. With all major brands, different stratifications for production exist. I am not partial to a brand, I'm partial to heathy machines to suit my customers needs and budget. So when I say "Even Toyota produces a grey market or disposable lift" I am not trying to start a shoot out. But grey market or disposable, OCTANE LIFTS CERTAINLY ARE NOT! I believe globally, note BELIVE...globally Goodsence has jumped from 12 in the top 20, to number 8. I BELIVE Toyota has dropped to 7. OCTANE by Goodsence (If you will) is specific brand for the North American market. Build with parts, service and pricing for the North American business owner. We have youtube videos and quotes, materials available for every one to see what makes Octane highly competent and highly competitive. Ever wonder why CAT runs a Mitsubishi or now Nissan? Octane didn't invent the wheel, but Octane paid attention to it. Where are our cars made? Made out of country by American brands, for American's. Octane accommodates a lot of customers where more well known brands don't, particularly price, warranty, service and value at that price point. We are welcoming sub-dealers to allow Octane to help more customers get into new. Our dealership sells healthy machine of ALL brands. We just so happen to be the flag ship dealer in Octane. Any one wanting to learn more can speak with the VP of Octane directly. He is accessible by phone or email. We believe that Octane lifts are top tier product produced in partnership with Goodsense. In conclusion, we are working hard to make Octane more of a well known name and thank you for asking BirdDog86. Come drive one.
