Dave, What truck did you decide to go with? I know you were looking at an Aerocell.

I have a 2002 with a build date of 4/02. My fuel pump took a cr*p at 114,000 miles. They must have saved the last "old" pump for my vehicle.

Six of one, half-dozen of the other.

I believe their reputation preceeds them. Check out Midwestexpediting.com. Sounds like they have changed their name due to the bad publicity.

Once again, Moot is a hoot!!!!

Aren't the Chevy vans built in Wentzville, MO??

That there's funny, I don't care who ya are!!!

Jack, That is 15 minutes from my house. That is a fun road to drive on. They have signs there telling truckers to use Ind 252 instead but that road is almost as curvy. It is alot more fun in my wife's Chrysler Pacifica than it is in "Old Yeller". But then again, most roads are!!!

The new G4500 is scheduled to come out for 2009. However it is not a standard cargo van. It is a cutaway chassis for such uses as cube trucks, ambulances and class-c motorhomes. The GVWR will increase from the available 12,300# currently available on the G3500 to 14,200#. If you will notice...

My favorite is I-40 and I-26 between Knoxville and Spartanburg. I also enjoy the West Virginia Turnpike and I-68 in Maryland.

She's right. But why do you need a 9990 gvwr. The law concerns anything over 10,000# which means 10,001 and higher. Both Ford and GM offer DRW cutaways with 10,000# gvwr and that would accomplish the goal of not logging or having a DOT medical card.

I am sure Jiffy Lube is not unique in customer fraud. They just happened to be the one's to get caught. http://mfile.akamai.com/12924/wmv/vod.ibsys.com/2006/0503/9152183.200k.asx

It's probably a misprint. I have NEVER scene a DRW Aerocell with the 10,000# gvwr that GM offers. They are always the 12,000# or 12,300# models.

I would hope that the warranty would cover any mechanical issues on a 2007 with only 34,000 miles.

Wonder if they will require a dock high truck to move the machines to Mexico when the plant closes after losing too much money. This is all 100% union induced. U Aint Working United Against Work

I don't mean to split hairs here....but 2008 -1973 = 35 not 45.

If I drove my own straight truck I would prefer they didn't drive on it. Seems like alot of wear and tear on suspension and tires. I carry a pallet jack in my non-dock high cube truck to assist with loading and unloading. It's really not that big of a deal to move a skid to the tail end...

That is a good deal, indeed. In fact if I had ANY freight to haul I would consider buying it!!!

I sent you a PM.

I run a 2002 GMC (Penske). Empty weight is 6800#. I average 11.5 mpg. My carrier pays 30 cents a mile more for cubes than they do vans. I haul alot of freight that could fit in a van but because it is called in as 3 skids. If they fail to give dimensions it automatically goes to a cube. I...
