I agree. Its particularly sad when it's a small 2 or 3 story building that would've been served well by a simple hydro for many many years but they got sold a gen2,ecospace,3300. You don't need a traction car to go 10 or 20 feet. The 10k saved up front is a trap. You'll end up paying that 10 fold more in repairs over the life of the equipment. And the big 4 know that. I Also think it has to do with the big 4 using their vast resources to target building architects. So when a small building that should've been a hydro goes out to bid its spec'd as a mrl traction already. The worst part is a lot of times the building owner has no idea what they're being setup for. They're trusting the architect is doing a good job..
