To answer as many questions you may have, and to save me from answering a boatload of questions, here is the entire story:

This CAT VC60D forklift, was previously located and used at one of my other warehouses out of town.  It, along with the warehouse contents were trucked FTL to my Victor NY location.  Unlike the out of town warehouse that was entirely interior concrete floor based, my location here in Victor is rural with multiple buildings, crusher run between them, and I immediately found out the CAT forklift couldn’t deal with such outdoor terrain.

In May, I had the forklift majorly service including all new cushion solid tires and wheels, as well as complete engine and ancillary mechanical work.  The service invoice is one of the pictures in this listing.

Upon its return, I found out, even with new tires and all of the engine and mechanical work, it just was not made for my use, between buildings, inclines on crusher run, etc.  Plus its overall weight exceeded the floor limit for one of my barns where it was needed!

So what I have now is a CAT VC60D forklift, with nearly $5K in new service and all new tires that I cannot use at this location.  While it performed fine at my previous concrete floor location, even with the new tires, etc. apparently this model with the Peugeot engine is known to be a gutless wonder attempting gravel inclines, etc.  Be advised!  I found out too late!

All the pictures are current as of this listing date, at the Victor NY location.  What you see is what you get, and what you are bidding on.  One of the pictures is the service invoice to detail with work done and the new tires, etc.

And now you know the rest of the story.  I have set the opening bid at $4,310, the amount of the recent service invoice!  That leaves me with a net of zero!  The forklift is being sold as-is, where is.  Weighing 10,400 LBS, you will need to arrange your own pickup at my location in Victor NY.  The best way is a heavy wrecker flatbed truck with a winch that can handle the weight accordingly.
