    Whatever happened to . . .

    That's what I am concerned about, the health issues. I had his phone number, talked to him numerous times, then the number got disconnected. Sent from my SM-G900P using EO Forums mobile app

    Insurance

    Interesting! Back in 05 I called arround to find some cheaper commercial insurance. State Farm was the first one I called. They told me that they don't offer commercial insurance. But that was back in 2005. Sent from my SM-G900P using EO Forums mobile app

    Say Hi to July

    You need to install another deep cycle battery/batteries to be able to do what you want. If you run that fridge off of the starting battery, you will kill it. The starting battery is designed for a different kind of job. Sent from my SM-G900P using EO Forums mobile app

    Say Hi to July

    The answer depends on the type of battery. If you are talking about the starter battery, then the answer is none, unless you want to use it only when the van is running.

    2014 Dodge ProMaster 3500 3.0 I-4 Diesel vs 2015 Ford Transit 350 I-5 3.2 Diesel

    I don't know if you can do it if you are not already signed on with a company. My friend was already signed on, bought the van, didn't pay the taxes at the dealership, but got a bill from the state to pay the taxes. Then he provided them with the lease, etc and never heard back from them yet...

    About to pick up a 2015 FORD TRANSIT i5 3.2 DIESEL..

    My personal conviction is that all the extra warranties that they try to sell us are money grabs for them, so I never bothered. I've read too many stories that they will find a reason not to pay in the event you break down. I would save that money and keep it in a maintenance account and if you...

    Thinking about getting into Expediting

    Jerry, welcome to EO. I would strongly suggest that you dont buy anything right away. Drive for an owner for 6 months, learn the ropes of expediting, and see if you can stand it. Some people cant stand the sitting, and in this business you will sit. If you dont like it, you can turn the van...

    2014 Dodge ProMaster 3500 3.0 I-4 Diesel vs 2015 Ford Transit 350 I-5 3.2 Diesel

    Pretty good price. Don't know what state you live in, but in some states you don't have to pay sales tax if the van is used in interstate commerce. I know Ohio and Tennessee are like that. Check it out, you might save some money. Sent from my SM-G900P using EO Forums mobile app

    Insurance

    I suspect that location, location, location has a lot to do with it. I used to live in GA and the insurance company icreased my personal car's premium a lot. I havent had a ticket or accident in more than 10 years. Then I moved to TN and it dropped a lot. I dont know if commercial insurance...

    Insurance

    Why do you need primary liability and cargo? Isn't L1 providing those? I know with Panther, Fedex and Landstar, they provide those, and I provide the non trucking liability, physical damage, and contractor protection. Sent from my SM-G900P using EO Forums mobile app
