I want to know how many people know how to drive a Forklift, or a Tow Motor, or a Verti-Lift? I know how to operate all of the above.
Thanx in advance for your cooperation, please no harsh responses.

Yep.
I can operate high-reach, sit-down, standing forklifts, and electronic standing forklifts.
Do scissor lifts count, and get me the "best answer"?

i can drive them all as you can.a forklift is the same as a towmotor.but its a brand name and also slang for a forklift.a v-lift is electric although a propane fueled probably has been placed into the work place. i drove both in various work places from funiture to rolls of cloth the latter using the v-lift.its forks could rise 32 feet without problem and racks of cloth could be lifted and placed onto the floor.you didnt mention a squeeze lift which i also used for large boxes of furniture and use to load trucks,box cars or just stack 6 high of any type of crated products. it had 2 plates one on each side and opened to 9 feet and using hydraulics squeezed the load together and lifted all off the floor to be taken anywhere.it was propane fueled.some were fueled by gasoline but all i operated were great for heavy loads so that no one strained their backs.i was certified to operated all that i listed.if you had a job to operate you had to take a test and pass it before you could work using lifts.they are dangerous equipment and can injure or even kill bystanders.i hope this answers your question.in the army i was in charge of tanks and heavier eqiupment and i drove as well as repaired those that were damaged by those that thought that they were operating toys.

I do. I've worked in a warehousing environment for about 8 years & I learned to drive basically any kind of forklift but I dont have a licence since driving forklifts is not part of my job description. I supervise people who do though

I taught myself how to drive all of the above about 30yrs ago. Today they won't let you operate one without taking a full day course & obtaining a certification card.

Yes I have operated and repaired electric fork trucks made by Crown and Yale: stockpickers, reach trucks, double reach trucks, transporters, sit downs, standups, clamp trucks, slip sheet trucks.

I do. I'm not liscensed, but I was an Engineer in a prototype shop and we didn't want shop floor guys moving our stuff so, I learned from one of the other Engineers.

Yes , I drove one for a few years at Rubbermaid much better than standing by hot machines all day.

A fork lift and a vertilift, but our vertilift is a bit of a pain to do so.
