Well flt , you are allowed your say even if i don't agree with this, You are perfectly with in your rights to put your point of view across, But to say i knock other OME'S i think you mean Linde because this is the company you work for or worked for i would just like to point out that saying something that is true is not bashing another company.

The only points i have put on hear about Linde were as follows.

First when Weichai power bought a majority stake in KION the ultimate owner of Linde and purchased 75 percent of Linde hydraulics linde firstly said this was not true when forkliftaction asked them on this, it was then they had to say yes. In fact Weichai power are now KION biggest share holder with around 40 percent and a lot of Linde development is now done in China

Second was the Closing of Merthyr again you might of been one of the management team who went into meltdown trying to find out how we knew your plans to lay off over one hundred people who had given many years of good service to the company. I don't regret any post i made about merthyr because it let people who should of known what was happening. I have been thanked by some that worked at merthyr for letting them know what was planed for them.

Thirdly the Linde 1411 that this post is about , You claimed the 1411 is a premium truck when a lot of people might agree to say they is no such product as a premium forklift. The 1411 is well below average for this range of trucks and compared with Hyster , kalmar, kone , the top three in the market it will struggle with sale. from what i have herd it is already struggling with sales. Now like i said before you are entitled to your opinion, but it just might be that Linde have now lowered their expectations on products or mine are just higher

Fourth our product you make out that we have never produced a truck and that we are just some one who thinks they are a manufacture , well i would like to inform you that all our truck are based on truck we have prefer-sly manufactured. When i started this project i admit i was on my own now i have a team working with me that will bring the truck to market and we have already have customers willing to take the trucks. Now that is not to say we will be up their with the real companies in the big truck market like Hyster Kalmar and Kone next year but we will be there within five years. UBER have from what i know never made a profit but they are the most valued start up ever


As for photos or videos of the truck that is for our marketing people to release when they are ready to do so.


what i will say on this matter is we are well on our way with the project now and will soon be ready to make a statement about a couple of brand purchases later this year that were in the market some years ago and are not now but will be again


So please carry on with your opinions it makes us just work harder to show people like you that if you work hard and believe in your product and team you will get there in the end. The end might be one , two three or even ten years but you will get there


WHEN YOU ALWAYS BELIEVE IN YOUR SELF , YOUR PRODUCT AND YOUR TEAM

Their personal animosity and business rivalry divided their German hometown Herzogenaurach. The town became known as "the town of bent necks" due to the intense loyalty to each brand.
