Some older equipment rolls its meter over every time it hits 10,000, starting back at zero again. With trucks like these, we rely on our purchasing manager's 30 years of industry experience to determine the truck's true age. He'll analyze the truck by checking wear spots and internal workings.

We look for only the highest-quality used equipment. If we can't make an educated decision as to whether a used forklift will satisfy our customers, we won't sell it.

It's possible to adjust the hour meter manually on some models. However, that's a difficult process not many people can accomplish. It's also easy to spot.
