Mmmmm .... chinchilla wraps ..... sounds tasty ....... is that in a soft tortilla with the special sauce ?

Shawn, It's the snow blindness that got ya ....... 8-)

My load acceptance rate is currently 100%, and my availability is currently 83% (I took today to recover from the last couple of runs) - but I have only been with my current carrier since November 30th - so I expect the availability % to go up. ;) At my previous carrier, my load acceptance was...

Sometimes you may have to lane a load. You may find a small load out of Dallas for a 1.00 a mile, and there is a 1.50 load in Memphis with both going to Chicago. ..... DOH !!!! Great tip for us noobies Dave. ;)

Ditto.

My rear door opening height is around 69 3/4" so if he's left with 58" clear that means he's raised his cargo floor around 12" (assuming the 3500 you refer to is a hightop and has a similar door opening) Call me silly .... but I don't think raising a full load up that far is something I'd...

Yeah - what Terry said .... And another thing if you are considering building a raised deck to get around the narrow width between the wheelwells issue you might want to think twice - the track (the width from side to side between wheels/tires on the road) on my 2006 Sprinter 2500 is pretty...

The big question is how do we get someone in front of them to talk some sense rather than talking big company profit systems like the current lobbyists do? Well for starters you find out specifically what committees in the House and Senate have oversight powers on the executive branch agency or...

I love this place ........ ya I know ..... it's sick .... but what are ya gonna do ?

ubiquitous white sprinter with original Mercedes 5-popper Bolt Express on the rear side panels ..... and C148 on the fenders. Feel free to give a knock ..... I'll come out of the cocoon.

RE: headphones sticky over Dallas too .... but nice and cool ..... at least until about noon or so.

This wasn't stinky .... but last night I picked up a 2000 lb pallet of of cookie dough and delivered it to an elementary school this morning. It wasn't a long run so I was within a couple of miles of the consignee before midnight - but had to layover until this morning when there was someone...

Yeah I hear ya - being able to stretch all the way out would be nice ... I woke up this morning and was feelin' a little cramped .... had to let my feet dangle over the edge for a bit to stretch out ..... Good point on the newer models - I know the long one went from a 158" wheelbase up to 170"...

FWIW, the fluid seems to be pretty specialized - only two vehicles use that particular fluid - the Sprinter and the Chyrsler Crossfire. I don't particularly like paying the high price for it (I think over $20 per quart at the local dealer, about 1/2 that at Europarts) but given the cost of a...

At one shipper I went to that made fastners, almost everything they shipped, or at least that I hauled for them, was in steel tubs - you know the kind - probably 30 x 30 x 24 (high) with a sort of a pour spout on one side. They had fabbed up a puller for these tubs that they kept at the ramp...

Here's a couple I saw that I'd like to add to the arsenal: One I saw in a catalog for a company (www.awdirect.com) that sells towing gear to tow truck operators. Basically it is a pair of large hooks - I think called J-Hooks in the towing industry. Take two of those and hook them together...

Yikes .... I hope the 2nd is better than the 1st for ya. I dropped 3AM in Seymour, snoozed at the TA and then came up to the J in Whiteland after hitting the Starbucks in Columbus on the way up. Probably hang here .... sounds like it should be below the freezing rain line.

Greg, I'm not a C ..... just a Sprinter ..... but I recently pulled my passenger seat and put in a "desk" - modeled on what Turtle has in his unit. Mine is 30" long by 20" wide by 24" tall. The bottom shelf has about a 14" opening, the next one up around a 6" opening, then there's a pull-out...

Depends on the size of the skids I guess ..... So just exactly how tall are you anyways Leo ? :) The only problem with a side wall bed that folds down is you likely can't use it while under load .... which could kinda suck for that one that picks up Friday afternoon ...... but doesn't deliver...

Yeah ..... what he said ...... To remove the cap just grab hold of it firmly and give it a good pull as jon says - no need to remove the red tab. To put it back on, put the round cylindrical portion of the cap back into to the dipstick tube and give it a good shove until it bottoms out. If...
