Mitsubishi Forklifts
Mitsubishi has a subdivision that makes all of the basic kinds of forklifts. Their product line doesn't go much beyond the "standard" kinds, however, so for some of the newer designs they don't really have anything. They've got all the basic models, however - traditional forklifts, walkie-ridies, narrow aisles, both electric and gas, etc.

Mitsubishi Forklift
Most Mitsubishi forklifts are in the small to medium range of capacity. This means 3,000 pounds or so to 33,000 pounds as the highest. If you're moving stuff that weighs more, they don't really have anything that can handle it. For smaller loads, however, they've got a pretty good variety and a number of variations of each model. The one problem is that they don't publish much information on the specifics online, they force you to request a brochure. That makes it harder to compare the speeds and efficiency with other companies, which usually make that data easily available - Mitsubishi Forklift only publishes weight capacity.
They do have an OSHA approved training program available through their local dealers, which is something you will probably want to look into if you get one. Another good thing about their service is that if you are buying for a big, multiple-forklift account, they will assign a specific account manager to help you deal with the servicing and operations. That can be a huge plus.
It's also pretty easy to get Mitsubishi forklifts used:
You can find a local dealer to get them new here at Mitsubishi's web site.
