    "Buying" into a Van?

    Ford did NOT correct the problem . I've seen several auto transporters loaded with Ford vans marked "Factory Repurchase" which means Ford was forced to buy them back under lemon laws . I know a hotshotter that has hauled many late model Ford vans and pickups to the shredder . The 6.0 problem...

    I made the mistake of buying a truck in the last quarter and taking the $15,000 dollar " bonus" deduction for buying a new truck . Looked great on taxes that year but didn't look good when applying for the loan the next year . IRS doesn't give you anything . The next year I had far less...

    I'm sure the trailer he is referring to is dock height . A lot of freight companies run them as doubles . I remember reading of at least one expediter running this combo as a "D" unit .

    Pickups & Trailers?

    There are plenty of haulers out there with pickups and trailers . Google hotshot hauling . They use flatbeds 28 - 48 ft. long .
