    payload for 2500 promaster high roof extended?

    Longer Nissan, I could go for that! Been sitting in one last couple days. (staying warm, he idles). It's got real leg room!!! & Much space for these feets (12's)! I'm impressed Cold as crap on the tundra round here. Yet I keep turning green instead of normal blue?!?

    The cost of staying warm

    Keep preaching gen-mens, my knees are weak & buckling (be on floor praying "save me" soon). Seriously though i was always told 2 batteries? I got a ginormous deep cycle battery, Lead acid type. Hhhhhhmmm more good info though. My frozen butt says reconsider. I wouldn't use much heat, 50°-60°...

    The Trump Card...

    The only feeling evoked here is "ire" Maybe some anger too. Sadly I suspect you are all to correct. Voting with my dollars I haven't spent there in decades. Now feeling is "pleased".

    It’s 2018. Come on In

    Sticktion eliminator, used every 50k miles will keep turbo bearing free of burnished oil residue & help pull crap from engine internals. Used it lots in my sprinter, really spiffed up the turbo on it. Spent last 1.5 days helping a guy in 05 sprinter. Had no mechanical knowledge & heaps of...

    We're winning with NAFTA'

    I went to college late (44-47 yrs old). One of the saddest things I learned was in economics. While I (among others) have always sensed this it sorta hurt to see it in graph form. I.E. from 1970 to then current (2000) While world figures went up (some down) U.S. wages were straight "flat lined"...

    The cost of staying warm

    All you egg sucking espar heater dogs be assured at least 1 is extremely jealous & frozen (kinda like a green frozen yogurt). ? What would that flavor be ? Lime? Green apple? Oh yeah "moldy oldy" Ha ha ha! Alas. I'm just so damn cheap to fork out the money for one + with no clear vision of...

    The Trump Card...

    Thanks turtle, I understand now. If the GOP had left taxes alone we wouldn't all be freezing right now. Thus Armageddon had begun.

    We're winning with NAFTA'

    Hhhhmmm true OVM. I pondered it in the vein of lesser quality vs to many different locations assemblies moving to. Whose to say about their stuff? (Outside NA) Honestly I noticed no responses an read the article an thought to stir the pot a bit.

    When Should You Like or Dislike a Post

    As relatively new member I feel this is a relevant topic, and learn from it. What is said to this point matches my values & thoughts as well. I do not know all the buttons, but it seems as mentioned to be in poor taste or thoughtless. Especially in times of sorrow or misfortune.

    Cargo Van Truck stop news

    Now here's a Treet. Pilot in Greenville (xit 93?). Walk out & sitting here a nice Lamborghini huracan. Very nice, nothing like the sound of a v12! Sigh! Lamborghini ...my favorite. End the year drooling.

    Cargo Van Truck stop news

    I'm a former combat soldier, if you want P.C. look elsewhere. Razors inna hair is for one reason only. Grap a handfull, see what happens. Pins in ears yep decoration. Spikes = shoulder to jaw....splode! The depiction was "unsavory character" aka poetic license. Generally not found in vans...

    We're winning with NAFTA'

    Having pondered the article and having read threads all over the place of "woe unto you" PM, transit, sprinter buyer. I feel that NAFTA is the problem. Parts coming from everywhere. Quality indeterminate. Even assembled hither, thither & yon. Almost seems a wonder they work at all. Thus the...

    //// Custom Tow rig for expedited RV work ////

    Many times you see these weird threads. You know their looking for someone to say "yeah that's cool" & get on board with it. Alas this is not one of those times (or threads).

    Cargo Van Truck stop news

    They found the killer when all the bodies floated up with fingers pointing. Unless u got spikes on ur jacket, pins through ur ears and razors in ur hair downtown t/a is best avoided.

    2017 MB Sprinter extended warranty

    Power train & emissions systems (unless changed recently) are 100,000 mi. GEO would be the one to speak specifically on this. Course he is a fan of extended warranty too.

    Dash camd

    I have a Garmin, expensive yet not worth the cost. It works. The ball socket broke & the electrical connector on the unit is sloppy. Jury rigged repairs for it. I would not buy another Garmin. It does record/track location & speed. I would not be without one.

    Frito Lay Sprinter - Is this a 16 or 18 ft box?

    Hhhmm?! They might not be using the 9950 (9900 sprinter) chassis. I looked in one & quizzed the driver. It's intriguing, like the L1 thing. No one's tried it since it's a fleet only sales. Wheel wells intrude much less than a cube.
