It's really simple to swap an entire unit Rebuilding isn't, but if you have a step by step manual that's simple too. I have collected a 16x20 garage full of tools without room for anything else over 35 years so I might be an exception I bought a sprinter in transmission limp mode and fixed it...

Breaks are good, as long as you can support it without digging a hole. Just consider the rest of the job market before burning bridges. If US is anything like here, the jobs market is a dumpster fire Making less than minimum wage, really less than living wage is unacceptable however. But...

It.does But after viewing a YouTube video, it's no different than the last 8 I did. 2nd February transmission change in driveway. Now it's a tradition And it will probably rain like last time and freeze in the dark if I take too long, fun times

Update: from full showing 200 miles left after driving 400.... Hmmm....ok I got 700 miles off diesel sprinter couple times - but this is gasoline with cheaper gasoline price . Hmmm

Well this is interesting. Wife took van out to see family, dropped 3rd/overdrive She limped home about 3 am with me needing to leave for work with it at 7 am By 4 am with a dealer level chinesium tool, I saw it was commanding 3rd, transmission was selecting third, and rotation was...

Keep bringing it in Free tank of gas shorty, but included 1 hr 10 min to drive 30 miles. Toronto

Nice. That's how things happen, they just kinda snowball I have a hunch from working 3 days a week; retirement might not be what I thought Good to keep busy more or less.

What have you been up to? Former expediters should post too

Only took 15 years before I hit the "real money" :p

Yup.. We plan to escape, but so far only 2 out of 4 kids are self sufficient. 1 decent paying run and 2 to 4 goof off jobs a week, home every night That's one thing that changed since you were here. Most jobs pay fairly well now

Better than dead run ;)

I never pulled the trigger on a larger truck so don't think I'm in any way talking down to you. Have you looked into stuff nobody else will haul? I've made as much as $10.81 a mile. I don't have any US contacts, but I have ideas. DM me if you want a few. They will at least be worth what you...

I had to drive thru it. Fortunately less than 400 miles this time of week for entire day Wasn't more than a foot of snow, but heavy moisture packed that still has 6 inches stuck to the bottom of my van making it drive like it's loaded. In the face of headwinds constant at 30 mph gusting to...

Shiny If I were to decide I could make money with one, it would be an ancient FL70 Don't ignore short runs. 5, $200 localish moves is still $1000....usually pay is higher on short runs also to compensate for the lack of miles I take all the $300, 150 mile runs I can get in the small van

What's the story, took a big truck driving job and kept the sprinter? I can't remember

I'm thinking my El Paso, where I stayed barely 8 hours before getting a full rate back to GM Oshawa near were I used to live wasn't typical. I actually WANTED to stay later (but took it) After the drive down, about an hour of looking around at the truck stop and trying to look at Mexico thru...

I got your answer in email, don't know why it isn't showing I wrote a long answer and decided it was too specific, here's the short version If that sounds high to you you just don't understand how small vehicles work. Just like I have absolutely no clue how to make it 1 month in a big truck...

Hamilton, On Unloading stuff that's expedite, but short haul 3 of us left :)

Forgot where i was $1000 cdn = $600 usd Although im home every night. You can't tell me everyone on this site hasn't had an expedite for $1000, usd or cdn We have one twice a week that pays $2350 cad - I'll let you do the conversion 2019 - 2022 I was delivering cigs. Paid $25 a box...

Well no, I don't work every day
