    Sprinter Curb weights and Payloads?

    The answer is what I posted, that is reality. It is not a conjecture where something is allowed because one wants it to be. The problem is there some sort of misconception what the under 10,000 lb rule is. I would shed a lot more weight than one generator, like both and a whole bunch more. If...

    Sprinter Curb weights and Payloads?

    What the weight on the sticker says is the absolute weight that you go with. If you have 7400 lbs of curb weight and an 8550 lbs gvw, then your payload is 1150lbs - period. What in the world do you have in that van to add 2000 lbs of weight to it? You of course can go over, it will cause...

    So instead of digging through the search results for the percentage, I assume that without the large sign it is 67% and with it, it is 70%. Well even at 3% what other fees are there for a contractor? Comdata fees?

    St Louis (Fenton)Chrysler plants

    Dave, we haven't had a big three for about 10 years. Chrysler became a division of another company, which took the out of the big three. GM has not changed and Ford is at least moving in the right direction. All are still losing market share and in the truest sense are not even domestic...

    Should we worry?

    AND what do pagans have to do with it? The historical context to the some of the word "enemy" in Islam seems to be something to do with pagans and alike religions, not with Christians or Jews. Those seem to be a modern issue.

    the cargo van expediter

    Well dismal, no Realistic, d*mn right. Yep first mistake - a 2500/e250 series van with a major company. Why? What's the hurry? There are enough 3500/E350s floating around that you should at least bump into a dozen going to Kroger. That means nothing, it truly does. You are competing...

    Should we worry?

    I think if it was a signal to a sc, then it would be worded a bit different. Honestly I won't let them win, so that means not worrying about the BS and hope that the government actually finds the guy and kills him.

    Is Big Brother Going to Watch Truckers More and from a Distance??

    I didn't know that the DOTs priority was safety, I thought it was transportation?

    Should we worry?

    No, should we? I think that this is the same old crap. There are enough chances for something to happen, having some disenfranchised American saying to rise up and do something may seem to be a bit too much for many who question his loyalty to Islam. Do you really think that those who are on...

    Fall is here.... keep a close eye out

    The point is who are they to determine what is poached and what isn't without the evidence that I actually committed a crime or even if the meat is venison - meaning a lack of seeing or having a witness to me dragging a rodent out of the woods with a weapon in hand to even justify an...

    Fall is here.... keep a close eye out

    AND this is the problem I have with the Michigan DNR, unlawful searches based on an assumption that there is a crime that has been committed. Who gives them the right to trespass into a freezer without a search warrant? Is it the same right they have ticketing people who are pulling out of...

    The Great Pension Lie

    I actually think there is no comparison to be made. France, like Germany, like England they are not the US and their problems with their economy are tied to their culture and the need for the government to provide to them because they are still thinking that they are subjects of the country...

    look at the new supreme box

    Not paying much attention to this setup but others are as I described, the aerodynamic flaring is on the box, not the cab and it clears by a few inches. But really? an Arch? You do mean an ARC right? What do you call it than, a tangent? Forward tilting cabs kind of tilt forward and...

    John, Just wondering something. Do you make all your contractors put those BIG Load-1 signs on the sides of their sprinters and box vans? Or can someone put those little door signs on instead?

    Note to newbies about guns in truck !

    I think many of you need lessons on the history of the country and the Constitution. As much as many of you think we need federalized things, like a federal carry permit, it all moves us one more step from what our Constitution is about to something that it never intended to be. Do you want...

    It is sitting here for more than 4 hours and no one has deleted and locked the account?

    kenosha engine plant closes

    I don't know what you mean Lawrence, the plant is providing engines for more than Fiat which is a good thing. It is employing Americans, which is a good thing and it is in my state which isn't that great because everyone thinks it is a money maker for the state. The plant is new, using new...

    So I am truck shopping

    Don't take this wrong but I don't see the "greater fuel economy" out of a sports chassis compared to a properly spec'ed straight truck. If you want to go down that path, go for it but if you want to actually turn a profit while having something built for work, then I would think you can do a lot...

    look at the new supreme box

    The cab tilts (sorry had to say that), as it opens there is an arc to it and it clears the top by a few inches.

    Ticket prices slashed

    OK Here is the solution, eliminate Medicare and Medicaid for those who can afford to be self-insured. THIS is a BIG step forward and removes about 40% of the burden of the system and that savings will translate into a savings for the providers to the point that they will both enjoy an increase...
