Wow, that is cool, Since I spend half my shift on a tractor, I'd love to try one of those. I wonder if it can carry/drag 12,000 lbs, or how well it works on wet floors.

That guy in the second video thought he was going fast when he got passed. It's a good thing he didn't change lanes a second earlier!!!!

Same here!!! Just got done discussing these with my boss about how that wheel system would be great for a roll changing unit we have but they dont have anywhere near the weight rating we would need right now!

I think we were looking at a kph speedo in the car the vid was shot from.
Even though.... He was moving in the same direction and the 'Vette was out of camera range in about 3 seconds!

I know, the speedo in the vid is at 150. I didn't think that was mph, so I converted it, which is about 90 mph.

Actually Most forklift like that is only designed to be inside a warehouse or on flat cement. If weather is bad you are not suppose to be operating the forklift at that time.
You need another type of forklift for outdoors and bad weathers. But in the real world, you run the forklift that's design only for indoor only, in outdoor soft sand area.
