The unit I am referring to is a all in one unit. The ac/heat is built into the generator and it's mounted on the back door. Not separate units.

Hi everyone! Got a quick question. I see these sprinter vans that has a unit attached to the back swing door. It's a generator/ac/heat unit. (or so I'm told) What I would like to know is the name of it please.

Yes it is cutting out the "middle man" but I am not out here to line other people's pockets and getting the shaft. That is what happens when you work with large companies. Cargo van and sprinters are low dog on the totem pole. If you are there and there is a load they will load you. Yes you...

When we worked at Try Hours we consistently ran 2000 to 2500 a week in a cargo van. We stayed out 28 days home for a weekend. We now drive sprinter for brokers and consistently run 3500 to 5000 weekly. We still stay out 28 days home for a weekend. Yes you most definitely want to look at the...

If you drive for a company you won't get to choose your rate. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using EO Forums mobile app

Not unrealistic at all. You would have to run around 2500 miles a week to get that but it can be more as well. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using EO Forums mobile app

Are you wanting to work it or just use it recreational? I think we are confused on what you plan to do with the box truck. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using EO Forums mobile app

On our original van a 06 Ford we had 2 Reese hitches installed on the front. Husband welded a frame together and put the generator and a small bbg grill on there. Worked perfect. The 2 hitches gave it more stability. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using EO Forums mobile app

I get suicidal during the 1600 mile weeks. Guess I am spoiled for the 3700 mile weeks lol. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using EO Forums mobile app

How tall are you because we have plenty of room in the drivers area? We don't have a partition either. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I317 using EO Forums mobile app

We have a 2014 Ram Promaster 2500. It has 12 feet of floor space, height is 72 inches, width between wheel wells is 56 inches. Payload is 4200 pounds. Love the thing. It does not get the gas mileage that they tell you. We are getting 18 tops. BUT when you think about maintenance compared to...

We have 2 brokers. One who does fairly good and one who does nothing. We make more running limited with the broker than a company. As you know now is a slow time so we just want to increase our load possibilities. You make more because you have no company fees. Expenses are the same just make...

My husband and i have been driving expedited for two years. We previously drove for a company. We now are running for brokers. We currently have two. One that tries very hard and one who calls if someone calls him (doesn't look for loads). If anyone would have any suggestions for brokers to...

We had the rubber matting on the floor and it sucked with sliding the skids to the front to load the other skids and also getting them back out. We also had a air mattress and the air draws the cold no matter how nice and toasty the inside of the van is. We now use colman camping cots for...

Does anyone have a list of brokers for sprinters?
