What our customers are saying
“Ports America Chesapeake strives to find new environmental initiatives and partnering up with Hyster to test their first U.S. Tier 4i top loader was something that we couldn’t pass up,” said Howell. “We’ve been happy with the performance of the Hyster Tier 4i trucks and are scheduled to buy two more of these top loaders by the end of the 2013.”
