Toyota Diesel Engines

I am leaning towards purchasing a new Toyota 7 series 13,500 lb pneumatic forklift with a Toyota 15Z diesel engine, I do not personally know of anyone that has this engine, so my question is does Toyota make a decent & reliable diesel engine? Any thoughts good or bad would be greatly appreciated! Also does anyone know if the 15Z is a tier 3 or a tier 4?

TOYOTA make great engines.Here in Europe the most common diesel engines are the 1DZ , 1Z , 2Z.They are assembly this engines since the 5 series,with only some few upgrades.In my opinion,the best engines running in the market,with no doubt.

The 15Z, if I'm not mistaken, is Tier III. I don't think Toyota will be releasing their Tier IV until sometime in 2013.
