Lanse Nothing scientific, just observations gained from 40+ years in the freight business. 1- I have seen used units ~10 years old listed on C L for ~$5000. 2- No. Solid tire, aka "cushion tires" normally are ~12" diameter. No side sway on paved floors, but useless as a hog on ice if used on gravel surface. Pneumatic tires are normally ~24" diameter, just won't fit in the space allowed. Except for dual wheel "yard trucks", total width will be under 40", to fit through a pallet space. For use on paved surfaces, "3 wheeler" usually turns shorter, but all the weight on one wheel will make it sink quickly on soft ground. For use off paved surface, a wide stance "4 wheeler" is much better. Side shift option is very handy. With a little practice, can position load within 1/4" or closer to where you want it. Stay away from diesel power unless you expect to run it steady for a couple hours at a time. Short use just won't let it get thouroughly warmed up, & stinks like the devil if run inside a closed shop. Propane probably best bet. Most electrics come only with solid tires, not easy to convert to air tires for outside use. HTH Willie

His dad was a hard-working farmer and the children worked hard everyday to help ends meet. In the rural area he grew up in, the highlight of the week was Saturday when many people took a break from their work to go to town. It was on one such Saturday in the early 1940's when Sam was 16 years old that he ended up in Dennison, Kansas to watch a demonstration of a new tractor being put on by a local dealer. It was an Allis-Chalmers tractor dealership,
