Miker, FYI Cleveland Ohio is just north of Strongsville. Now, would you please tell me why you would leave Akron, Oh and go through Chillicothe to get to Mississippi? Just wondering. :)

Aluma bunk is the only one that I know that builds and installs sleepers in cargo vans, however they are pricy. As far as loosing a load now and then because you have a nice place to rest and sleep, I would say who cares. Your rest and comfort is just about the most important thing I can...

I was also unable to find the "media" tab. Without seeing the video clip, I can believe that it was a wake up call to all that was able to watch it. I have a camera on my windshield that is made be DriveCam. It is set so you will see 15 seconds before impact (or incident) and 15 seconds...

Would someone describe what a tval really is? I have to believe that t stands for temperature, but I am at a loss as to what val stands for. Thanks is advance!

I am not a husband, but I have all the necesary equipment. Just wondering, where should I look for my bearings? And where can I go to have them serviced?:) :) :)

As many already know, Ike did major damage, not only in Texas but far to the north also. In Ohio we had over one million people without power due to the high winds that came in last Sunday. Many other States were affected but I only have first hand experiance in central Ohio. To make...

Yea, well,,,,, A lot of people are real upset about what happened to you. It could happen to any of us. I for one am glad that you posted the companys name and location in one of your posts.

fastman_1 When you say assembly, are you talking about the wheel bearing assembly, or the hub assembly? My 2006 3500 requires that the entire hub asembly be changed.

You better get to a good mechanic that you trust and fast. If it is a late model express van you might want to stop at the bank first. You can not replace the wheel bearing, you must replace the entire hub assembly

The sad thing is, the company that took the freight for .68 cpm just gave the shipper something to use against the next person who tries to make a living. I know that some drivers and companies will take freight just to move the truck to a better location without reguard to whether...

Pilgrim, I don't know what planet you are from but for you to say that 95% of the people don't pay income taxes and 50% don't pay any taxes at all is just out of this world.

Morningstar tomorrow you will feel a little better about the world and you will still be a real nice person,,, but the shipper will still be a, Fill in the blank___________________! Hugs to ya gal :)

Okay, I'll try to answer the best I can with the info given. If the paint is flammable and packaged in less than 119 gal containers the placard you use is a (flammable 3). If the paint is flammable and packaged in bulk containers you must use a number (1263) placard. If the paint is...

Moose, you did not give us enough info to tell what plaquards to use. Is the paint flammable? How is it packaged? What type batteries are you hauling? They could be corrosive or dangerous when wet.

What happened to the day manager?????

Any time I take a load to Texas, I look at the money that gets me there and if it don't pay enough to deadhead out, I don't take the load. The last time I stayed waiting on something comming out I wasted two weeks. Then deadheaded out. NOW that was stupid. Now I drop, sleep, and head out.

My Espar don't keep the engine warm, only the inside of the van. It's about the size of a thermos bottle and runs on gas taken from the vans fuel tank. Are there different kinds of Espar? It seems to me that if something would keep the engine warm, it would be a heavy drain on the batteries...

miker, you have figured your fuel cost at .25 per mile. That will probably not cover your cost. You are probably not going to set in the van without the engine running to keep warm and cool. Also I don't know whether you are running gas or diesel but I saw reg gas yesterday in Tn and Ky at...

Yea, What Turtle said. I was in this business for over ten years before I got my Espar heater. I have no idea how I made do without one. Yes they are a little pricy, but with the cost of fuel I believe they pay for themselves the first year, two at the most. Then you have the...

I have not seen any vans marked "Factory Repurchase", but it makes me wonder why they would take them to the shredder. I would think there would be many parts that could be salvaged. I realise that Ford is not in the salvage business but just the crash parts alone would be worth a fortune.
