RE: layoffs
I'll bet if you did a little research, there aren't any U.S. made forklifts. Just like the tractor industry, they're all foriegn. Assembled here, profits go offshore. Even Bobcat loaders are now mfg. by a Korean firm.

RE: layoffs
I don't work for any forklift company now Terry; I love those "genuine motor " clothes and parts. They are made overseas by the same companys the send stuff over here to other outlets so they can be sold out from the licence, then they sue. Well now there in trouble, they have too many bikes in inventory and not enough buyers. Two days ago they had to sell 1 billion $ worth of revenue bonds (yes thats Billion with a B) for operating capitol. If they start building them all back here in milwaukee just think how much cost savings they would have not trucking from Milwaukee to York & Kansas City. I'd say close those plants and make it all one (well maybe two Pilgram Road and Capitol Drive)site.
