This original truck that Lester made included features like equal high-speed forward and reverse gears, rear-wheel steering, hydraulic lifting and tilting, and under-the-load front wheel drive. This particular model was so ground-breaking that it was used for 30 years before newer technology finally caught up and took over. Though the "Model-L" has changed considerably since it was first made, it was full of new ideas which are still utilized nowadays.
