Can I rekindle this subject. I'm very intereested in the battery powered AC units. Is everyone still happy with their set-ups ??? I know the newer batteries are much improved since this subject got started.

Where do you look for backhauls ?? I have outbound freight but will end up DH home 90% of the time. Are there load boards for vans ???? or that include vans ??? Also, if you get your insurance on your own, whats a reasonable annual rate ??

My comment was misleading. Landstar has a division for TT's that allow you to pull loads off their board from your laptop. I was hoping someone had a similar program. Don't know where to start looking for cargo van frieght (other than get loaded)

Are there any companies that allow you to run a van under your own authority and will use you when they need you (like Landstar). I have outbound freight (from Virginia) and would like to at least occasionally have freight on the return. I'm basing my rates on DH home so anything would be a...

I have the excel spreadsheet for TT's but would love to have one for cargo vans. If anyone has already gone to the trouble, please pass it on.

Just asking to see if its doable. I know a guy (retired) that runs a courier service and runs freight up and down the east coast but the longer/better paying loads are pretty scarce.

I know there is a nice spreadsheet available for TT but when considering getting into expediting at the van level, where can I find info on fixed and variable costs. The info I have received so far indicates approx. $450/month for ins/QC/workmans comp etc. and I know maintainence on a sprinter...

I'm off the road but still an owner and love to dive. Both my wife and I have our c cards and have been diving for 6 + years. The recent economic mess has thrown a wrench into our schedule but we are both anxious to get back under the water. We are warm water divers and stay pretty much in the...

I'm currently running my '05 KW T600 under my own authority but want to come off the road. I currently have a ST with PII but they admit that everything is slow .. even TT's. I would love to put a team in my truck but I guess thats what everyone is looking to do. I'll put an ad in the...

I'm would like to come off the road if I could find a good driver for my truck (05 KW T600). I know how tough things are finding freight so I guess the best choice for making money is a team. Any suggestions on how to find a good team ?? My truck is set up for my wife and I. I have the big 86"...

If the charge isn't too much, I think its a great idea. The only way I can keep up with the load boards is to be sitting at my laptop. You are dead on that the good loads go quickly !

I am currently a Dish customer and plan to buy an antenna for my T600. It has an big old Datron/Transco CruiseTV antenna currently installed that I thinks is obsolete. I want a GOOD antenna that will give me a GOOD HD picture. Also would like an easy set-up and suggestions on where to purchase...

Done ... I'm good to go. Thanks

I have a straight truck running for Panther and have found another driver for it (doing very well). I miss driving and considering buying a TT. How do the TT loads work ?? Are they the same as the ST's ?? They have QC's and you get load offers based on your location and hos ?? Also, I've heard...

I am a Panther Owner and would like access to the Panther board. Can you hook me up ??

Anyone else on the east coast that do modifications to existing sleepers....like adding a sink etc. ???

Anybody try the audio books ... sounds neat ???

Is this a truck dealership you're talking about ?? Or do they do sleepers as well ?? I've been looking into having some work done on an existing sleeper and most seem to be located in Indiana. I'd love to find someone on the esat coast.

Thanks ..... I talked with DMV and you're right on .... a trip permit will do what I need. I was unsure how the other states would look at it. I'm looking at using OOIDA for insurance.
