Thanks for posting this..there's always two sides to be heard.

People may not know that industry has used electric vehicles for 40 years, such as electric carts and fork-trucks. There are problems with load, temperature and charging that have yet to be solved. I hope they succeed...

There's the problem right there.

Believe the NYT not.

I'm currently around fork trucks all day long. 100% propane.

You might be referring to what box stores is called an electric stair, used in ware houses and big box stores.

An electric fork lift has been tried and found to be wanting. They don't have sufficient lift/weight ratio capacity, and are constantly down for recharging.
