The gain in a team operated truck such as this is much less than a team in a straight truck because we can-do up to maybe a 1000 miles in a solo truck like this versus maybe 600 in a straight truck... The Ford outfitters guidelines will allow us to add up to another foot to this truck but that...

We achieved 17.5 MPG going to the Expo but only 15.7 MPG going home. Wind, cruise, crossword are making the difference. It should be above 15 MPG average in service. Sent from my SM-G955U using EO Forums mobile app

Actually, we are very business-minded fleet owners that carefully weigh cost versus benefit on every van we build and operate... we've been doing this a while... The Cutaway chassis costs us much less than you might imagine because of our fleet negotiations with Ford... and the materials...

While I want my drivers to be comfortable, I am not going to build it big enough for a dance-floor. Sent from my SM-G955U using EO Forums mobile app

I built this truck from an owner's point of view rather than from a driver's point of view which is somewhat different. Sent from my SM-G955U using EO Forums mobile app

Box interior is 100" wide x 147" long x 69" h. A married couple might fit in there if they are both on the small side otherwise it is a solo driver truck. Sent from my SM-G955U using EO Forums mobile app

This truck goes to work next week with a great driver! Sent from my SM-G955U using EO Forums mobile app

4-6 skids WILL pay better! Load-1 is unlike other carriers! Sent from my SM-G955U using EO Forums mobile app

We will get better rates for 4-6 skids. I don't know how your carrier deals with you but Load-1 treats us great!!! Sent from my SM-G955U using EO Forums mobile app

Not really. We have quite a few of them and it's no problem. Keep in mind the rear wheels are very close to the back so cargo weight is distributed to the front tires as well.

I heard the installer is in the middle of a huge contract right now.

Many many business men, and even everyday people with their investments, lost a huge amount of their fortunes back then... Frankly, if losing 900 million enables me to be worth 10 billion dollars 20 years later, SIGN ME UP!!!!

I buy all of my vehicles, business & personal, from Zeigler Chrysler, Dodge, Ram in Plainwell, Michigan. My sales guy is Bill Ball and the Service Manager is D.J. I definitely benefit from doing so much business there. Regardless, these guys are GREAT! You can't go wrong with them. Tell them...

I put them in one of my vans but I found them to be designed with such close tolerances that any dirt or debris caused serious trouble getting them in & adjusted... E-track is much more user friendly in my opinion so we gave up on L-track.

From experience with our fleet, your mileage seems to be pretty low for this kind of problem BUT over 250,000 miles we have had one engine that had a bad lifter or camshaft (I don't know if the chicken or the egg came first) that we replaced all the lifters and the cam for $590 OR it could be...

A Transit Cutaway 178" WB 9950 GVW

This truck is still on the road & making money. Specific to the method we used to attach the skin, which was the proper double-faced tape... after almost 4 years not one seam has let go! I would be very, very skeptical of welding (using heat anyway) to attach aluminum to steel... they just don't...

Our first Promaster, a 2014 3500, just had its first new set of brakes this week @ 275,000 miles. I think that is normal brake life for Promasters.
