[QUOTE="flyerdan, post: 111403, member: 2510"] Finding similar models for comparison can be difficult with these older ones - Machinery Trader and Iron Planet don't generally list stuff that isn't geared toward the commercial user. Probably try a global craigslist search or Google xxxx for sale. The H30 would be a 3000 pound capacity, so it would be two sizes below mine. They could be a bit more desirable as they would fit in a garage and be better in the close quarters that most home environments would be. Plus they'd be easier to get unstuck; I stuck mine in the yard when it hadn't dried up [I]quite[/I] enough yet. A 9200 pound fork doesn't give up being stuck easily, and when it does the results aren't pretty. I did manage to make a set of 8 foot fork extensions that are great for handling oversize stuff like pickup canopies and picking up cars, etc. I also made a man basket out of stuff I had laying around, so that increased its versatility even more.
