    The Future of Expediting; Yes or No?

    Double standard? No way.Sorry you see it that way. I once used to have my weight capacity ot a certain weight, but reduced it, just because I felt it wasn't a safe amount of weight for my van to carry.I once had a 3,000# skid on the very rear of my van, and it only dropped 1.5 inches in...

    Not many, really.Gas engines have been proven to have the same longevity as a diesel, for far less cost during the lifetime of the vehicle.The difference between gas and diesel cost can be as much as 50 cents a gallon, sometimes more.The ease of mind in the winter not having to worry about fuel...
