Best ask your carrier(s) first, IMHO...

Well, a smilie is round, and appears at the end of a sentence, so....

The Rolls-Royce Expeditor Edition is designed to transport an envelope in exquisite comfort, nestled in a Connolly Leather briefcase. The operator can sleep under the LED stars embedded in the Wilton wool headliner. Its companion, the Bugatti Veyron Expeditor Edition, is designed to transport a...

Apropos of nothing at all: Does anyone in here speak Hebrew as well as Moose does? Not me :p

That's probably a given, just like the "few" who service Sprinters, compared to the larger numbers of Dodge/FLT/Mercedes dealers who service only their core vehicles....

Weird but funny. I liked it :)

Found some numbers here: http://www.fiat.com.au/images/docs/fiat-commerical-specifications.pdf Highlights, converted to American coin: Fuel tank: 90L/23.7 gal Wheelbase: 4035mm/158.9" Roof Height: 2524mm/99.4" Overall Length: 6363mm/250.5" Width: 2050mm/80.7" (Time for clearance...

LEA has another good reason to treat you well: Since you conduct yourself in a professional manner, your actions reflect well on them. Imagine if they didn't? You could let yourself go, let the truck stay dirty, talk trash about them, etc. I know you'd never do that, but if you did you would...

Just watched the intro on their live stream. Looks tasty, but awaiting numbers (payload, price, etc). Wonder how GM plans to compete with modern vans like this and the upcoming Transit, and also what effect it'll have on the Sprinter...

That says a lot about Landstar as well as you, Phil. I've been in the same position as you at least once, that of changing industries and having to inform the "old boss" of your plans; they usually act like jilted spouses. Just for fun, since I'm sure you remember this song, I submit a line from...

Must be his having quit smoking. After all, he can breathe easier and he's almost $700 ahead just in 11 weeks. Good for you Ken!! :D

Speaking of forced dispatch, I endured it during my years on the ambulance. I worked for the transport squads, as opposed to the 911 side, so I had my share of Two Ton Tillies, those folks who weigh 500 lbs, live on the second floor, are too big to properly bathe and who have to go to dialysis...

I've lived most of my life in SE PA; most times, even if there's a blizzard, the snow disappears after a week or so. What I remember about 1977, besides it being senior year :D , was that there was snow on the ground continuously from before Christmas to Valentines' Day. This is not usual for...

The Xig is right. Think for a second about how slaves were actually treated: like livestock. Imagine having no freedom whatsoever, having to count on your master or overseer for FOOD or WATER. And being able to go to town for a spot of tea? Riiiight....

Is there a cutoff switch? Look in the owner's manual. Good Luck!! :)

A scorda..WHAAA? Thanks to Wikipedia and Youtube, I was able to figure it out: Scordatura Violin Improvisation - YouTube Don't know how well it would fly at Juilliard, but it looks plenty useful for down-home fiddlin' :D

Is it worse than NYC?

That's because the movie was shot in a town near Chicago. I looked for familiar landmarks when I saw the movie, and was similarly disappointed. While attending Clarion U, I drilled at the Reserve Center in Punxsy from 1979-1981, so I know a "little" about the place :) Funny movie, though :)

According to teh interwebz, 52.5". Looks about right, going by the space left between the edge of the 4 by 8 I have in there now, and the wheelwell. Right now, I'm thinkin' two runs of 100" L-track, approx 24-30" apart, with a 4' piece of vertical E at the door, as Moot suggested. For the...

Trying to decide whether to install L-track on the floor of my E250 extended c/v, or E-track. I will be installing E-track on the walls so I can use a load bar, but I'm thinking of using L-track on the floor because it gets screwed down in one line, so it should be easier to mount on top of the...
