K&N filters sacrifice efficiency in favor of airflow. So sure, you might get one ore two horsepower extra but at the expense of cleanliness of the air which wears out your engine long term. Another issue is the oil that you put on the filter. Some of this oil ends up on some electronics...

If you care about your vehicle, stay away from the likes of k&n air filters. Use the OEM filter and change it when required. Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk

I agree. Something that can happen is that not all the oil drains out and if you put in what it says in the book you will be over the mark. Putting too much oil in can be detrimental. Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk

If there was enough Sprinter work I would have still been there.

I've picked up and delivered at lots of airports but it has never been this bad. A few hours delay usually, but this load took 10 hours and 25 minutes to get on my truck. I believe this is my record. What a hell of a load! It is not over yet. About an hour away from delivery I got stuck behind...

I drove a Sprinter when I was with Landstar, so I don't know anything about their straight truck business. Like treadmill said, I would still worry about that ticket. Landstar is very picky. They take a long time to check out everything. Hope it works out for your dad. Sent from my VS995 using...

Since at Landstar you don't get deadhead pay and relocation pay, you have to figure out the deadhead before and after the load, and see if it is worth it to accept the load at the offered pay. It will take some time to figure this out. Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk

Picking up a load at Hartsfield Atlanta airport. 7.5 hours and still not loaded. Next time they won't be able to pay me enough money to accept another load picking up here. Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk

You have to get in between the intercooler and the radiator. On my T1N it was not extremely difficult, so I dont think on yours will be much different. If I remember correctly I just took off the top radiator support (2 big screws) and then I kinda pushed the whole radiator stack forward. I...

Don't know about the Promaster in particular, but in general I don't believe in any additives. I drove my Sprinter (I know, different animal) for almost 800k miles with no additive whatsoever. If I was in your shoes I wouldn't waste my money on any additives.

Sorry for your loss Mark. May she rest in peace. Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk

Greg, Sad to say that some drivers/owner operators are color blind. I met a few over the years that had no clue how much it cost to run their business. If they don't know that, they also don't know if they are making a profit or not. Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk

I was in that I75 mix going south somewhere. Maybe not the same one as yours, but one sprinter, my straight, another straight and a tractor. Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk

Anybody lately got tires at Belle Tire with the Load 1 discount? I got 2 steers about 2 years ago and the discount was pretty good. Now it seems that they don't offer the Load 1 discount unless Load 1 pays for the tires. Too bad for them. Without the discount they are more expensive than what I...

Scott, you need brakes already? How many miles on the van? Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk

Roadtime, nice to see you too. Nice van/setup you got there. About time to put it to work. Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk

I never ran into any that did not accept the black card. Some are not 24 hours, but not that many. Sent from my VS995 using Tapatalk
