Well for starters, 2800 lbs in a Sprinter is too much so I am turning that load down, it is truck work....not van work. The whole notion of 3000 lbs in a van is wrong, anything over 1 ton belongs in a truck. Leo, your post makes a lot of sense but the problem is there always seems to be someone...

70 front/80 rear, no nitro. Check my air pressures weekly (usually bang on) with a good quality dial type gauge (those stem type ones get out of whack to easily, drop em once and they are out). I rotate when there is 3/32 difference between any tire. Running Michelins I will get 200,000 no...

Very cool Jack! Just think what it would have paid if you got to take it to it's final spot. That's what, 394,000 miles or something? Moot will know, he's from there I think.

Talking about winter or at the very least telling of its arrival (even in US Siberia) should be a code of conduct violation. Make it stop Lawrence!!

Chicago, and tired enough to sleep thru the gunfire.

Us shorties get to sleep sideways in the van and stretch out. You must get cold having to leave the side door open for your legs. How do you deal with the frostbite on your feet and calves?:rolleyes:

I blame Jack for getting me hooked on Panera Bread. Now I want that warm bowl of soup feeling all the time. My Artic Breeze A/C system has a heater in it that If I run the genset it will run all night. I was just thinking maybe the blanket/mattress pad might be able to get me thru the night...

Most are under 5 amps.....bout the same as my fridge.

Anyone who has one, can you chime in and tell me how you like it, brand price etc. Thanks!

It would depend on the carrier. IF..they have a good FSC program and IF...they will sell the extra space and pay you for it then maybe a box truck. If you are going to run with any of the major carriers I would stick to a van.

Monday to Friday I will generally wait it out anywhere unless I am in Ontario, then I head home right away as the DH pay for Toronto, Hamilton or Kitchener is the same (Kitch being home). On the weekends....150-200 miles. Depends on where I am and if I think the prospects are, if I can get home...

Back in my favorite place...the J in Montreal. 3 loads this week so far and I haven't seen the wife and dog for over a week..sure do miss the dog. Lansing MI to Montreal on 1 tank (23.68 us gal ) of fuel last night...somedays I do love my Sprinter.

Sitting at the Panera Bread in Trenton MI, just east of the Detroiter. Been here since 10am...this is the longest I have sat in 2 weeks. Could this be the first no load day this month? Feels weird.

I'm beginning to think someone plans this, every time you are in my neck of the woods I am south of the fence. Penetang eh? beautiful part of the province, just make sure you don't end up getting put in the mental hospital...there is a big one up there. I'm sitting in Saginaw MI for a morning...

Where are you located, what size of unit are you going to run with them and are you fully OK to cross the border? A bit more info and we can all help you out.

There is indeed an IT dept. The occupy the 3rd floor at the palace in Green. Considering that FedEx develops its own software and does not buy anything "off the shelf" my guess is the dept is quite sizable. As for talking to them directly? IT people don't know how to communicate with humans as...

Pilot in Syracuse NY. 2 loads yesterday, the last one dropping here. I pickup here today after 6 and head back to within 20 miles of home. Last time I got home (friday) I was there all of 20 minutes and the phone rang, my dog was quite ticked when I turned around and left again. September has...

I use a bike chain and lock to secure mine to a spoke in my rims. Nobody will steal it (unless they REALLY want it) and I can never leave it behind!

Here is the link for all the CC stuff. VF imagewear out of Nashville makes all the stuff for all divisions, if you call them they will give you links not posted on the web site (theirs or the Fed) to get you images of what you want. http://images.fedex.com/uniforms/FedExCustomCritical.pdf I...
