    August. Where you at,

    What in the WORLD is going on in Detroit? 400 units? I didn't even bother counting the vans. Ky to Roseville, Mi. After the shock wore off from just seeing 400 units in the D, I DH'ed 100 miles to Lansing. Now at the J in Gd Ledge. Four vans/Sprinters here, including myself. Told dispatch "do...

    August. Where you at,

    I neither see nor smell gear oil. It has been a long time since the rear was serviced I admit. :( I also don't hear the chunk-a-chunk noise one usually hears when a bearing is failing. No howl from the pumpkin, etc. Just a rumble that frankly sounds like nothing worse than a brand new set of...

    August. Where you at,

    Woke up hungry, went to Denny's. Got a load to Meritor in Troy, Mich. Somewhere in the night, my rear spot mirror either fell off or was "adopted" by someone else. I didn't hear it leave, so I think it was taken.:mad: Update: it didn't scratch the paint when it departed, so I'm pretty sure it...

    Fleet owners that pays by W2.

    That depends on each driver's unique situation: how much they have withheld for federal, which state they live in, etc. Just for me, on $700 there'd be $21.50 taken out for PA taxes, for instance. Paullud lives in NY, so state taxes are $:eek: , while OVM pays no state taxes at all....

    Big Truck What speed is your truck governed too?

    I found my van's 93 mph governor somewhere in South Texas. My wallet governs me to 70 loaded, 60 empty.

    4-Wheeling Here Is An Interesting Van Setup

    Link no vork. It opens up into godaddy or something like that. I saw the truck too. I think the curtainside idea has potential, but climbing up into that sleeper would get old in a heartbeat.

    Another GREAT Expedite Expo

    I got a close up look at the Promaster Westmicher brought to the L1 display; wow what a nice job he did! I'd love to see him do a Transit, too, because I'm a Ford fan :)
