    Heater broke...

    My espar will not start whenever certain trouble codes are logged (like overheat) until the computer is reset. Maybe they copied the safety features too? Try removing power for a while then restarting, or seeing if there is a reset button... Edit: supposedly there is a reset button near the...

    Very peaceful sleep at 30 net per hour. All the shipper would have to do for me is say "no there are no more invoices" for me to cross the border. Too difficult I guess :D Thanks for paying this months fuel so far while I snooze

    Anyone track their loads on a map?

    If you make the switch over to Android, Navigator is free (Google play store) and can be used offline, or points searched from Google Maps. I use it to store all my routes and points of interest so I don't have to mess with a laptop. Also good for planning those "what if" scenarios. Funky...

    Cargo Van Team Daily Lodging Advice?

    I've been doing this 10 years. I have not gotten a hotel room once. I have only run heat one year out of the last 10, and never A/C. I'm in a sprinter now, and it's paid for. I can't imagine paying out for hotel rooms and having enough money to consider it worthwhile... IMO of course...i don't...

    Pickup at 8. Or 10. Or 11. Or not at all...I do enjoy sleeping though, and hopefully getting wait time while I am...

    Sorry NorthernBill. I'll go back to watching the lemmings and eating kraft dinner because 4,000 a month isn't enough to buy a trailer over here. Mississauga to Ohio.

    BFGoodrich All Terrain T/A KO2

    Look at the General Tire Arctic Alpin. I DID have a route thru Cleveland to Buffalo TWICE a day. They were good for 3-5 feet of fresh snow (with limited slip differential)

    Yep. Or the middle school janitor. Just nobody thats ever been in office before. Best would be a libertarian dismantling of government. (Well best would be a bloody coup but not a current Canadian ideology). The world gets the wrong idea about canadians, the only liberal panty waisted...

    Hi everyone. Yes I made it out in that tank of fuel, found some room on a dusty credit card. Just feeling meh. Had enough of the political situation here. Wife wants to join the neighbors and become like everybody else - Canadians now owe more in personal debt than what our entire economy is...

And thank you for sharing, this is the van I've narrowed down my replacement of my sprinter to (mostly due to mpg) Please post when a fix is found, or the lawsuit succeeds, I don't think your...

    Flying J/ Pilot Fuel Rewards

    I think if I can get it, and stop going on half hour detours for cheap fuel my life would be a lot easier...that's their justification for the higher price, they're right there when you need it I've never been afraid at the inner city cheap diesel stations, but I have been annoyed by ladies of...
