Streak, Yes complain. I would and have. I don't care what others think, it is my safety and those around me. If the company wants to actually do something other than pay people for passed inspections they would take things seriously. By the way, pictures are great. When I had the DVR and...

Thanks for the heads up. The dealer where it is going, I know very well and they have worked on sprinters for 8 years now.

Yea Layout, you see what I'm getting at. I am all for the interaction between carrier and driver. I would like to have a dispatcher call me after 30 hours of sitting and say "How are you doing? Let's see if we can get you moving". That helps a lot more than a pat on the back because it shows...

Because Layout, it seems a bit silly to say "get a good inspection we will pay you" when a good inspection is part of your job to keep the vehicle and yourself safe. It is like "turn in your logs on time and we will give you $20". I would agree with "get a bad inspection and we will subtract...

Actually Russel I was told today by the Mercedes regional service manager that the best alignment the Sprinter can have is at the Mercedes dealer. Whether that is true or not, we will see. A friend's sprinter is headed to one tomorrow morning for a good going through before her trip to California.

$50 for passed inspections, that is a bit too much.

I had a LOT of inspections and not once did a DOT officer say a word about it. They were concern with the play in the adjuster, the issue with the ABS wiring rubbing up against the brake hose, the issue with the clevis pin and so on but never the popping that happened.

I talked to someone last night who has a bizzare behavior at the buffets. They have one of those surface temp things and a small clip board with a bunch of paper that looks like what the health department uses. They check each temp and record it on the clip board as the staff watch. The girl was...

OVM, You been listening to my phone conversations? I had a long "discussion" this morning about this subject, the reason I am grumpy - a lack of sleep. Awards? Rewards? What? Are you not a business person? Don't your rewards come from the result of your hard work? There is a bit of...

Its good that a lot of you did all of this training and such but you know try working in the industry as an installer of POS equipment or alarm repair person and work in restaurant. It is not what you all see or how clean the place is kept but sometimes what is living behind the walls or above...

But by your account OVM, nothing is normal unless it happens after 200k.:p Seriously, why is it everyone is afraid of a used sprinter but then if they buy new, it seems they expect top dollar for it when they sell it? I looked at one the other day for someone which had 145k on the clock. It...

Even if they are trying to collect on a ticket, there are procedures setup in each state to allow a person to pay the ticket with fees added in. BUT with that said, I have had a bunch of "fun" experiences with 'debt collectors' in the past 6 years and found out about this; The Fair Debt...

Which are worst, Florida or California beggars? I think Florida, but California ones sometimes better educated.

My CB does have weather but doesn't have an alert feature. I went here Weather Radios Emergency Alert All Hazard Radio and got a Oregon Scientific (OS) WR113 and was given a Alert Works EAR-10 after someone else finished reviewing it. Both work well and the OS is with me in the truck I am...

No not really, I'm really bored sitting at an airport waiting for a plane to arrive - being bored .... bored... yep bored.

OVM, It doesn't work that way. It is all about treaties and bank transfers and so on. The treasuries are backed by good faith, nothing more and they can't come over here and foreclose or repo anything. What they can do is to refuse to extend it out on the due date, which means they can either...

$50? Be serious. Those guys begging, you know the ones who come out of the SF school of begging, must pull down at least $200 a day without a problem. On good days with warm weather and tourism in full swing that may make $350 or more. It's like the graduates of the L.A. school of Dumpster...

OH! I see... then ... never mind ...

Really? I am wondering what type and/or brand tea everyone is buying? Loose or in bags?

He doesn't own all of it. He has been warned not to put up buildings on government/private property and ignored it. It doesn't matter anyway OVM. Nothing will be solved until they get him out of the picture, look at the Detroit train station and how he has derailed efforts of rebuilding that...
