I agree with BREWSKI that there is no "Premium" forklift comparable to Rolls Royce or similar. A forklift is a tool built for a purpose.

When a forklift manufacturer claims to have a Premium product it should of course include only top quality driveline, electric and hydraulic components, be developed and tested to a very high level. But further to this you need to have a global support network, custom options, service, spare parts. Logistics and warehousing software support and automation support, in-house financing and leasing, as well as short term rental support for customers to cover short busy periods like Christmas etc.

You can have the best truck in the world, but if you don't have the support network around it, then it becomes obsolete.

Fact of the week
According to studies published in the English Journal of Medicine, the impact of daylight savings is revealed by a 24% increase in heart attacks on the Monday following the spring shift forward. When clocks move back in autumn, heart attacks drop by about 21%, suggesting that loss of sleep is an important driver.
