As the name implies, Rough Terrain Forklifts are designed to run in the toughest environments on rough, unpaved surfaces. An ideal choice for construction projects, lumberyards, landscaping, and other outdoor applications, rough terrain forklifts have deep treaded, large pneumatic tires allowing the vehicle to grip the roughest of terrains, including mud, sand, rocks, snow, wood, and ice. While rough terrain forklifts are more expensive than other forklifts they also have higher speeds, better acceleration, and are virtually unstoppable

Forklifts were first developed in the early 20th century. In 1906 the Pennsylvania Railroad introduced a battery powered platform truck. The convenience of this truck soon became known throughout the world and was used to help in factories, WWI and WWII. The modern forklift still used today was introduced in the 1920s by various companies. Since then the forklift has became a crucial piece of equipment in an assortment of warehouse and manufacturing businesses.
