The Crown Wave and C-5 Series gas forklift increase productivity in a challenging environment
For connoisseurs of vintage caravans, Bend – a town in the heart of the beautiful Oregon landscape – is truly a paradise. It is home to Flyte Camp, a business devoted to the restoration of these classy vehicles. Before long, a number of popular TV networks got to hear about Flyte Campe’s passionate owners. To meet the challenge of completing multiple projects while ensuring the highest levels of safety and productivity, Flyte Camp chose Crown’s Wave Work Assist Vehicle and the robust Crown C-5 Series gas forklift for their daily business.
