    Still empty in Grand Rapids. Diesel $160-1.78 (Still better than $3.99!) Moved down from Ludington. The Magic could still happen!

    Yes, my friends also told me about that State Park! BTW, I do paint when I can, when I'm in the mood, in and around my Loads and Home Time. Yes, inside my Sprinter at times while waiting for that Call from Dispatch!

    Hi NoName. You are very fortunate to have lived in and grown up here! Many photographers were here with camera's on tripods and people positioned in their cars to watch the Show unfold before them. It's dark now so all I could do was head down Main St. to the Lake's edge and snap some pictures...

    Well this was a Gift of a Day.... What a way to end it. Maggie, like a tiny child, didn't know what that thing (a wave) was coming at her and making a sound!

    Sprinter 170" extended 4 x 4 payload capacity

    Perfect example: today's load accepted at exactly my Max. load Weight. Arrive, and BOL states the 3 Skids Total 250 lbs. OVER my Max./GVW. I explain to the two people in Shipping because they are genuinely curious about the 10,000 lb. Rating over needing to Log their hours and on and on. He says...

I can't idle my engine for heat and air, so I have a Generator/Roof Top Air. This takes from my Load Weight. Your Bunk, a rear swing out for your Generator, your Roof...

    Sprinter 170" extended 4 x 4 payload capacity

    Ya, just go by the manufacturer's GVW on this vehicle minus ALL that's on your Van when scaled. Then you'll know within 25 lbs. what weight you can haul legally.

    Sprinter 170" extended 4 x 4 payload capacity

    Don't know about Calgary and the Rockies, sorry. Also sorry I don't know about driving the 4x4 vs my Sprinter. Bolt doesn't/hasn't sent me out West there in my 4 1/2 yrs. of Expediting.
