Not unlike someone wearing orthotic shoes. :D

If you keep typing like that, Laura is gonna tap you for a random.

Yes, we all know this one is coming, because of how Fenway has operated in the past. They buy a company, get what they can out of it (usually for about 5 years), then sell it off, usually keeping it in sound financial condition when they do. So that Panther was looking to IPO or is now looking...

Actually, I was being sarcastic, you were being sardonic. There's a difference. Sarcasm is a contemptuous ironic statement. You were being mockingly derisive, which is sardonic.

Might not be a good idea to just assume Load 1 or any other carrier will be all that accepting to any and everyone who comes a running. It's not like these people will be bringing Panther's customer base with them. That'll only happen with whomever buys Panther. Crack your checkbook, John. :D

"This sort of thing should be encouraged, not discouraged." I'm still stuck on how such a simple statement draws any conclusions whatsoever. It simply states two ideas, one, that this sort of thing should be encouraged, and two, that this sort of thing should not be discouraged. It doesn't...

And all the parts attached to it, yes. Same rear end, same transmission, same brakes, same everything... except hair and makeup.

All Sprinters are built by Mercedes, it doesn't matter if it says Mercedes, Freightliner or Dodge on the side. Other than a few cosmetic difference, and the picture on the cover of the owner's manual, they are identical. They are so identical that I was ordering a bunch of parts for mine, and...

Like Dennis said, if you have room for two full size batteries, then you have room for two 6-volt batteries. As for Optima batteries, I'm not a fan. Neither is the manager of the Autozone at home, who wishes Autozone would just quit carrying them because of all the problems and returns they...

If that's true, then you need a spare GPS unit. Or a smartphone with Google Navigator or something else as a backup.

That's a good point. The additional money to fuel a car isn't all that much. Someone getting 20 MPG and drives 20,000 miles a year will spent an additional $1000 a year in fuel. That' like $20 a week, which isn't much, and certainly not enough to cause a collapse in housing and have everyone...

Ditto what OVM said, except dealing with MB dealers doesn't bother me that much, since they are highly experienced with MB vehicles. Freightliner, on the other hand.... As for the original question of, "What do you sprinter owners do as far as approaching ownership of sprinter vans?", I can't...

You're considering replacing the entire van because an oil pump or sensor might be going bad? Am I reading this right?

I'm guessing that "most everyone I talk to" means people who have never owned a Sprinter because they are afraid of them and they have to justify their fear somehow.

The home heating oil season as a reason for high diesel prices is mostly a myth. And in the case of this season, it's all myth. Eight-two percent of the US home heating oil market is in New England, where they have seen a twenty-five percent reduction in demand this year alone, partly due to...

Yup. LBJ set the gold standard.

I run the Silverstar Ultras, which are brighter still than the Silverstars. Two months is a little quick, as I usually get 4-6 out of mine. The maximum wattage, not brightness, is what the laws specify, so these Ultras burn bright and hot, and they naturally won't last as long as the much...

It was a metaphor.

Why is that, exactly?

Excellent! Now we won't have to kill you and eat you. :D
