    You may or may not like the idea, but I saw a Sprinter guy who was tired of always painting his hood....so he took it off and took it to a Line-X place and had it coated. Admittedly......it didn't look that bad and was durable as heck. I also met a farmer who had his entire "field" pickup...

    Accept Load Calculator

    The math needs some tinkering and a few more input variables need to be added... But.....a good effort and definitely something with positive potential.

    I Need Another Perspective

    The risk when you broker something out... You care more about your customer than the broker carrier cares about theirs (you). If this shipper is a good customer you want to keep, eat the cost to keep him happy and never use this outside carrier again who obviously doesn't live up to your own...

    Mechanical Cummins ISB 6.7 Knock/Clatter?

    Sounds like a typical 6.7 that isn't the newer common rail injection type coupled with a typically noisy Cummins air compressor. I don't hear anything to worry about in the video.

Like most of ATeam's posts it was well written and contained very good advice or thoughts that would help anyone be a better more educated expediter.

    I like the above. Or have a relocation fund set aside for those "have to be somewhere" type of things. They're freight movers...not travel agents.

    17’ Transit 2mpg boost

    While us diesel owners may cheer the fuel prices changing and our better mileage.. we can't forget that comes with an upfront cost of buying the diesel engine in the first place...and if your making payments on the van it can add up to quite a cost. Some of the RV hauling guys (not many but a...
