Forklift's and truck's are the backbone of our business. We have 2 Hyster's and 2 Taylor's and each of them are rated for 30k pound's. 3 of them have cab's. 8 ft blades and can sideshift. Amazing watching these thing's at work. I drive them once and awhile but enjoy being the director!

The ones we have do pretty good but do break down sometimes too. Harsh working conditions where I'm at. We've got a Hyster down right now that's only a year old.

We have a Hyster from the late 70's. It clanks, bangs, creaks, loses power when hot and leaks oil like a sive. It's still goin though The thing's a monster but it's only rated for 5000lbs.

The only advice I can give you about driving a forklift, is pay attention to what you are doing, gentle and smooth is fast, and don't drive like it's the Daytona 500. I have been driving them for about 20 years and hit my fair share of things just pay attention, pay attention, pay attention and you will be fine.

I'm getting my CCW's. This gun is perfect for a compact pistol. Pam and Dave turned me to it.
