Is being a forklift driver hard at all. Cause I have very good hand-eye coordination.

It all depends on the enviroment and traffic......

You need good depth perception and anticipational skills also

These things are alot different driving than a car or truck.....

Not really that hard, need more common sense than anything. It might take a while to get used to the rear wheel steering.

What size forklift is it?

I've been working there almost a year now. I work in a factory that builds cabinets. So i already know the layout of the plant. We also have huge racks almost everywhere out on the floor.

$466 mounted and balanced for some Nexen CP521 tires for the wife's car, 215/65-17. Not too bad. Watched them do all the work. I like hanging out with the guys and BS-ing.
