    Sprinter cargo van load board

    Everybody used to use Sylectus for expedited Careful, I'm told a lot has changed in 7 years, not only expensive with garbage rates but they don't let you cancel easily The rest have a little on each. If you are posting, just ask for "small straight" and the floodgates will open

    No forced dispatch, what that really means?

    That is VERY true. Hi Ragman hope you and yours are all good My personal view in 2024, I take only what is good for me and don't give a rat's ass what isn't. Not my job to ensure a large faceless corporations profitability, they won't ensure mine

    Boss wants me to buy a Sprinter

    Is he going to sell it official, or take it off your pay? I might do this if it isnt a legal bill of sale, but a rent to own PAID FOR BY HIM. In other words, fine you'll take the sprinter off his hands if he gives you the work to pay for it (paying you more in the end than you could make on...

    Cargo Van Thinking about coming back into expediting ?

    From what I see, it's bad with all types of freight / size of trucks. Not just amount, but what they are paying. Tough time to come back unless you land somewhere with a ton of regular customers Fell off a cliff partway thru 2023, at least for me - while 2022 was a record year

    There's gotta be a better way

    Ok, update I saw one of the Promaster cab chassis with Volens sleeper units... WITH A HARDSHELL BOX. So it exists. Previous comment applies, I don't think it was traveling even 50 mph; he was probably trying to not spend everything he just made getting back home :)

    There's gotta be a better way

    I haven't personally seen one under 10,000 lb manufacturer plate WITH dual wheels (but I get you might be just trying to show the box) Try and rent something. Last week I got 10.3 mpg in my E250 with the short body. You don't want to be stuck with a combo that is too expensive to make money...
