    Got a nice run yesterday, went to...Well, if folks lived in the middle of nowhere, they would go here to get away from it all. Moved about 80 miles south, now in Waterloo, IA. Nice rain falling. Over 1500 loads dispatched in two days, THAT, is kicking butt!

    It's April!!!!! I was in Holland and woke up to a nice snow fall, all the way to Auburn Hills it snowed on and off. Three E-1 vans and one Try Hours all have our butts in the wind here in Perrysburg.

    Anyone know why blower motor speed on 2006 Sprinter rises and falls?

    Mine did that once. I changed out the cabin filter, and it has been working ever since. In fact when that last filter was due to be changed, I threw it out and made one for the intake. I used a household filter, cut the plastic grid to fit the intake plastic wire tied that in place, cut the...

    Holy batcrap, Batman! How much?

    Mercedes always made the Sprinter. Dodge and Freightliner sold them in the US up to 2009. Now Mercedes and Freightline sell them.

    bargaining with the dealer

    Scott, if I thought a buyer was a risk, I would run his/her credit before I wasted my time making a deal. I had a woman once with 10 grand to put down on a used car. Spent a lot of time with her. Wrote the deal up and sent her to F&I, no one would finance her. CBS's, (Can't Buy S@#t), are wild...

    bargaining with the dealer

    One credit check will tell them if they are a flake or not. Numbers, it's all about numbers to the dealership. Close to end of month and year, always good time to buy. Put the butt in the seat and get the buyer burning gas and busting bugs.....

    bargaining with the dealer

    Cash plays no part in making a deal. All the sales are cash to them as who ever carry's the loan will send a check to the dealer. The salesman cares not about finance, if they do not get a cut in it. DO NOT SAY- I want my note to be around 1200 a month. Reason- Say you have good credit, the...

    bargaining with the dealer

    You can deal with them. New has a markup of around 5%, then there is dealer pacs, hold back, dealer fees and so on. Used is marked up a lot. I made more money selling used then I did selling new. So, on a used one- they are not selling very well, and if the one you are looking at has been on...

    Fuel Leak!

    Yes, I think every Sprinter owner should carry a spare set, as I do to. I'll get Wayne to change everything out next time I'm up there. Friday will be a year since I broke down in Mathews, MO and Plow Boy and Gay Boy fixed it. I still have to tell you that Story. lol

    Fuel Leak!

    On another note: When I dropped off my load yesterday, I went home to get my rear door hinges. My old ones had to be closed while pushing on the bottom of the doors while pulling on the top. One leg slightly up in the air. It took me and #3 son 30 min to change all 4 of them out. Now I can...
