Wonder what wheelbase they will go with hopefully the longer one, some of these Amazon Sprinter's could trickle down into the used market years from now.

Detroit just isn't progressing fast enough, they say the market is hot but I see prices lowering sometimes... the people there just keep shooting, the bad neighborhoods outnumber the good... I hope things will change fast in a positive direction. Where are the investors... where are the American...

It's a "big no no" only if minds don't progress and carriers live in the past, once new technology changes so do the rules of what can be done and the potential that can be accomplished together to move forward in the right direction and at once all can thrive in the free market and progress to...

I'd like to see a competitor compete with Uship (We have lyft and uber but no competitor currently for uship) and be able to mix expedited loads in once the Sprinter gets full and has room for a skid or two. Management of trucks moving sooner then later is something u ship doesn't have a concern...

Nice people will answer all your questions, van rates were too low last I checked year or two back around 75-.80. Michigan based company.

Current per mile rates please ;)

Or turn up some classic Motown Jams if you're in the D. ;):D

Legalization was more then half of it, if not all of it (supply and demand for newcomers looking to get high). I was here before the legalization everything has shot up in places like East Denver and Aurora, houses I remember inquiring about that once were 169k are now $325k, another one 225k...

And I go to Colorado "The New California" you can't buy a home out here for much less then 500k, it's out of control, legalization nationwide would certainly calm all these real estate vultures down.

Just don't cross into Canada, they don't like guns over there. o_O

Thanks Ragman for your advice on the area, this map here also indicates the safer areas. I like Jefferson Chalmers and Martin Park as well as the south side of the EEV. University District seems to be too expensive. Palmer Park, Indian Village are unattainable unless your net worth is a million...

If you feel that way, why do you choose to reside there?

What do you make in a Straight per mile currently? I think a lot of people choose the Sprinter and cargo van because of the freedom. I've done around 350,000 miles road time (with some of those loads paying over $2 per mile) and looking to just get into shorter regional runs so its not so much...

Deadhead to LA I'd say... ran a few out of there in my transport career, did a LA to Tulsa and a Lebec CA (just north of LA) to White Plains NY out at 10:30am Tuesday arriving NY on 3pm Friday. Longest run of my life not sure how I did it but I pulled it off solo. $1 per mile on both.

I'm in retirement right now back in CO;), Just did 20,000 miles in 3 months (sat half the time)... If I can purchase a home and relocate to Detroit I'll be looking for a good carrier. Freight is dead out here even locally, Sprinters are throw away vehicles you can make more money in a car. I...

Because it's all I can afford, when a house cost 50k its definitely a reason to move and help the city come back. Not to mention the great location proximity to east coast and Chicago/Ontario and nice summers. I have family in New Orleans also similar in terms of being "dangerous". Lets hope for...

Still needing a carrier that will take on 06 Sprinter 158, looking for short runs out of Michigan 200-500 miles, occasionally heading into NYC, PHILLY, ATLANTA or MINNEAPOLIS. Plan is basically to bounce around from Chicago, Toronto, Cleveland, Columbus and Indianapolis with a rare seasonal run...

Not particularly but I'm planning to move to Detroit so I need to get warmed up and adapt to the life there which isn't so bad these days.

Are you running for Barrett directline by chance?
