My company had a ALF 98 tiller good apparatus minor problems as it got older but never OOS for any long periods of time. This was replaced by a 2007 ALF I wish we still had the 98. In a two year time span the 07 was towed to the shop aleast 7 times; on several occassions the transmission would get stuck in a slow gear on box runs and would crawl to a stop. You would have to shut the truck down restart to go 10' and the same thing would happen. The truck always has overheating problems I think the radiator has been replaced 3 times, the air compressor has been replaced several times because it would run constantly and burn out. On several occassions the windshield wiper arms would fly off will responding; nothing like going on a box run while its raining and not being able to use your windshield wipers or hoping they dont fall off the truck. Numerious electrical issues and fit/finish problems like interior grab handles falling off in your hand. The cab has cracks in it already; horrible paint the trailer has many rust/cancer spots all over. LTI makes a great ladder to bad its pulled by a POS.
