    Past violations of NC carrier discovered.....

    Uhhhmmm ... how about utter retardedness ? Seems to me that any small business might well be in violation of a number of laws or regulations (which aren't really the same thing as laws) due to the ever-increasing complexity of such .... at some point it becomes almost impossible for the average...

    Sprinter Used Oil Analysis

    Here's the next installment - sampled with 47K+ on the sump. They say good for another 10K miles. I've already put 3K on since the most recent sample was taken, that is listed on the attached report. My guess is, at this rate, given the trending, I'll be looking at least at 70K miles on the...

    Considering Cargo Van Purchase

    Not necessarily true - because they do have their own customer base and are not solely dependent on NLM and Ryder/Penske Logistics ...... Last trip I had there was back in late January, so it's not exactly "recent" experience ... but .... I was called within an hour after dropping in Laredo, to...

    Considering Cargo Van Purchase

    OVM, I think the guy already knew - have a look at what he listed as job experience.

    Considering Cargo Van Purchase

    I would think that if someone were going to do this, and wanted to actually have anyone that it affects consider it as valid, they would distribute it via email (or mail) to those contractors - so they could review it and determine whether or not the figures he is using are realistic ...

    Sprinter Bypass Filter Installation

    Yeah ...... that's a nice feature. :D The real trick of doing one of these is accommodating the 1" I.D. drain hose back to the sump - unlike other other filter types which are pressurized, allowing you to return the oil pretty much anywhere, this one uses a large hose and gravity drain ...

    National Bottle Deposit + A Bag Tax

    I've noticed something interesting the last few times I've been at the counter at J .... next time you're in there have a look at the area behind the counter, above it where they store the cartons of cigarettes ..... starting to look pretty bare up there ..... (might not be as bare in the states...

    GM employee stock fund dumps all company shares

    Really .... are you serious ? The reason why it's so ROTFLMAOAPIMP funny is because it shows how utterly stupid both the company management and the workers are (assuming both had some hand in the decision) - because no one who was apparently involved in the situation has even a basic...

    Speaking of White Glove.....

    so what would you have suggested

    Hard to imagine how anybody driving for someone else in a van or sprinter is making it in this environment ..... tough enough if you own the vehicle :cool:

    Sprinter Bypass Filter Installation

    Moose, I actually went one better than that (IMHO) - rather than calling a competitor, I talked to someone that has fairly significant experience with Mann+Hummel centrifuges, isn't selling a competing product, and so has no dog in the fight: "Hi Randall - a quick answer from near Gibralter -...

    Sprinter Virgin & Used ATF Analyses

    Will do moose ..... ;) I'm going to pull the filter in the next week or so and crack it open and see how the element looks after another 10K miles .... I expect it to be fairly clean ... but ya never know. :D Probably pull a sample and have it analyzed and see what Blackstone says. I'm...

    Sprinter Bypass Filter Installation

    I think I may have mentioned this another thread, but I'm going to be moving from the TP bypass filter to a centrifuge bypass filter for the engine oil. The TP bypass filter will be moved over to the Cummins in my Dodge RAM, since it sees about 1/20 the miles yearly that the Sprinter does...

    Drive-By Postings

    No, it really doesn't (at least to me) - surprisingly this is one place where you and I agree. But it ain't my sandbox, and I don't make the rules - I'm just a guest and try to keep that in mind when using the forums here. However, I would say that if one is to post publicly - particularly...
