What's the best 16,000 lb. "LP" forklift?

I'm looking for a new 16,000 to 18,000 lb. capacity "LP" forklift. This lift will run 16 hours a day, 6 days a week. I use a Linde H80D, 17,500 capacity lift now. This lift does a good job but it's dieseal. Linde doesent make a "LP" lift of this size. I've got a Taylor and a Hyster "LP" but their to slow and don't have the guts that the Linde does.

The New Linde engine actually meets Tier 4 emissions standards that don't go into effect until 2013. It will be labeled "Tier 4 Interim" It's probably the cleanest industrial diesel engine in the world today. Also better HP and better torque than its predecessor. Linde actually does offer this chassis in LPG in Europe.

You won't find many trucks this size that run on LP and you won't find any that have the guts that the Linde offers. Linde just introduced a new series diesel truck in that size and it is Tier 3 compliant which means that the exhaust emissions are negligible. Give your local dealer a call to find out more information.
