Rlent, If I remember right, but may have this confused with another vehicle, the OA sensor really is not a sensor at all but an algorithm used to determine the life of the oil form many factors when the van is driven. I know that Bosch and Delphi have an OA self contained sensor and now based...

Actually the solutions are here, but the government is making it impossible for us to use them. For example the EPA. With 2012 and later on the stricter emission requirements on diesels, coupled with California's assault on the IC engine, we won't see any solutions come to us until we have a...

I have met a lot of them, many former autoworkers who need the money because they spent their savings on things for the trailer, boat, race car, vacations, trips to where ever and between the credit cards and all the other bills, even with their $2100 or more a month, they can't make ends meet.

Because some of us have to. Failure is not an option.

Here we go again. Maybe Phil is right, maybe all of us should start naming names and let them go to the sources and ask questions to see what answers they get. Phil when you build relationships up with people in the real business world, you keep those people as a close guarded secret, it is...

Pjjjjj, I think that there is a misconception about what we are talking about here when we talk about success and business knowledge. In reality much of what we are talking about are based on three distinct forms of professionals in this niche market and many use their point of view from only...

But Phil, I know of a few WG owners that left and they left not because of their inability to manage their business but because they were not making the money with FedEx. They showed me their stats and their offers and pointed out a few things that I never realized until I was ready to...

There is always a trade off in fuel economy and equipment in the truck. Many don't think of it because the number are small (.01 to .1 MPG) but does add up in the long run. It is like large fuel tanks, when filled they cost the truck mileage but when it reaches a point where the fuel has...

Rlent, I am wondering if a bypass filter will extend that oil change or it is a waste of money on the sprinter version of the engine?

I tend to go to a dealer for this. but this is me.

Yea, ain't that interesting. I always said that the press is one of our biggest enemies in this country. They want to see us lose the war. The last time I checked Harvard wasn't a right wing school.

This is getting good!

OVM, the system here is setup differently than most of the rest of the world. Other places the treaties and agreements, and even some laws are binding across the entire country. But not here, there are three levels of government working at the same time. The Federal government represents...

well Landstar does that right now, actually a few do work out of their home. The point really is to have people who can communicate with both ends of the business to make sure the workflow is connected and moving. I have always maintained that the biggest problem in this industry is hiring...

I am wondering if the unit uses an orifice tube or a valve? Well anyway, how is your fan running? Is there any air restrictions? How is the condenser mounted? are the lines secure?

Kicked out of walmart? And you in a sprinter? Well don't feel so bad, I was too. You know, I had some problems in NY, I ended up parking just outside of the lot where their security could not bother me. The cops came around and told me to make sure I lock my doors and "by the way, walmart...

There is only one thing I would do; I would hire my sales staff, my intake staff and my dispatchers from the fleet of driving contractors. I would not even make them work at my location, with todays technology, it is far cheaper to telecommute than to have office space to that they will take up.

OK after a deeming 30 minutes :o on the phone for my previous post, which of course no one answered (thank God). I am told I have to answer, and should have in the first place. Have you sold a truck at EO? Yes sold my van. Did you start, stop or continue your trucking career at EO...

No OVM, it is a very good case. Let’s straighten this up a bit.. 1 – he raped and killed two girls, 15 and 16 years old. 2 – he was not told of his ‘international’ rights under the Vienna convention 3 – he was properly represented under our constitution and he has had...

Well it does, it replaces it. :)
