    ken, you gotta remember these are sleeper equipped sprinters. i don't remember how much more the sleeper adds in the 07 model. i had talked to a woman with an 05 sleeper sprinter and she had no problem with 2500#. driver stuff included clothes and a case or 2 of water. i didn't see much else in...

    Sprinter service

    maybe it is just dalla$ and not just the dodge dealer. i was quoted for a new overflow tank for the fl80 $375.00 by fl of dalla$. Joplin was $103.00 ups'ed to my house. ta in denton needed 145. my local home dealer did not have one pointing out it was on national back order. joplin wins hands down.

    cargo van sleepers

    if you go to the unicell site and click on options/stripes there is a 4500 chassis there with a nice box. taz quoted me one for about 45K. add the geo floor rollers and you are onto something.

    Drug Test for my Job

    i heard a fella out of nyc on a cleveland radio station on the same bent. his take was that before we offer free money to those with no jobs why not ask if they used their free education to graduate high school. his reason is that if the free on opportunity education was wasted what makes us...

    cargo van sleepers

    i talked to owners of a bob caldwell expeditor sprinter recently and they could not make the 2000# cargo weight with the sleeper, driver and attendant stuff. maybe the unicell drw would be the width to go if/when it comes down to it. i have talked to recruiters and they do not want a unicell...
