Sitting at the consignee in Saginaw mi waiting on a return call from contact who is supposed to tell me where to take this box. It's only been 30 min since I left a voice mail.
I could tell you where to put it?!
So am sitting here beside ship "Freedom" and the "Valor" comes in to dock! Quite a thing to watch
I jumped the line of about 15 tractors to unload claiming emergency part for "Freedom"

So while this is a nice experience to the point of getting it off..,
NOW I Have to wait for customs to clear the part ,then I have to wait for the ships engineer to come down and claim the part ONLY after carnival takes customs to breakfast.
This could take the whole morning!

Porky Sprinter. Mine weighs 5450 with me, scaledEmpty sprinter with driver weighs what? 6600?
Add your 3000lbs load and you are 715 over legal limit set on the sticker for your van.
If you actually load 3300, you might get away with it. But if not, you are looking at $200 of fines and court fees. If 1001 pounds over, even more fines and fees kick in.
But, to everyone their own risks.
(No gear not even a spare tire)
Well I'm out of there now to deal with Houston airport
You must be driving same as OVM. Good 'Ole 5 cyl.
