    Anyone ever work with one of these forklifts?

    Came across this vid and thought it was a pretty slick machine, just wondering if anyone had any experience on one?

    Never seen it before, and I work on them for a living. Interesting find, but I gotta say I dont think that thing would survive in some of the conditions I see fork lifts put through.

    we are getting all the info to be a possible dealer, we specialize in side loaders and specialty equipment like that....

    the down side is they only do like 6 mph most places were in at the machines do like 12 and they want me to crank up the govenors as it is.

    You know when you were little, and you watched futuristic cartoons
    about how the future would be,......that video just reminded me of those days.

    That has got to be one of the coolest things I've ever seen.

    I'm still sitting here trying to believe what I just saw.
    I can't even believe that's physically possible.....
