    Ummm, yep....some times an explanation would definitely help a lot, even when you know it won't change the facts. Scott, your on the wrong side of everything?

    Multi-Carrier, Freight volume, and selling advertisements on your truck/van

    Advertising: Many of the carriers pay an extra amount of money to the contractor (truck owner) for displaying to expedite companies' signage. These companies will not be interested. Some of the multiple carrier companies might allow it, but you would just be trading one form of payment for...

    Best Starting battery for a gm van.

    Thanks for tip on the charger. I had picked up on what you said about mixing battery types in an earler post. As for now, the batteries are separated, not charged from the same source. I'll just leave it this way for now and get an AGM for the auxillary battery when I do connect everything.

    Best Starting battery for a gm van.

    So, I parked at the J in Shelbyville, KY this morning and took a nap. Five hours later I awoke to a dead battery. The gps and sirius radio reciever were the only draws that I know of. The Autozone in Shelbyville had the Platinum battery that fits my van...so I have one with side AND top posts...

    Back soliciting

    I would think that the best way to handle that situation would be to tell the party who your about to run the load for that you are currently pursuing that same shipper as a customer. Have the non-compete clause amended to both parties' satisfaction. Would seem the only truly legal way to get...

    Things we use to help with mpg?

    In that case, CAT engineers don't know what their talking about. I've done a lot of the things spoke of in this thread myself and know that my truck gained fuel mileage. I took it from a 9mpg truck to 10.5+mpg. I drove 65mph fairly consistent.

    A nice pic of the 2014 Ford Econoline replacement

    I don't see anyone diss'ing on the Sprinter anymore than your diss'ing on the Ford...in a thread about the Ford, no less. FYI: IF they were still building the older style engine like is in the sprinter your driving...and/or if the EPA hadn't forced them to ruin a perfectly good engine.... I...

    Best Starting battery for a gm van.

    Thanks. I called Autozone to verify and they said that their Duralast batteries are new batteries, not reconditioned. I like that Autozone is available most places we travel to. I don't like that apparently only a few select stores carry the Platinum battery. I'll probably pick up a Platinum...

    Best Starting battery for a gm van.

    So, it seems that my original question should have been "what is the best AGM starting battery for a gm van" :). Oh! It HAS to have side and top posts!
