    Adding cruise control

    You can’t install an after market cruise to a 6.5 TD. The 6.5 TD is drive by wire and has no throttle cable to install the aftermarket cruise control to. If it does not have cruise, then you have to do a couple things to get it. First is to find a used turn signal unit from a van (1997 to...

    Ok lets hear some good about Express-1

    Broompilot said; “I would not let the stock price be of any concern to you as a driver. Reason being if the parent company goes broke, someone will buy this quality company up, nothing should change for drivers or customers.” I don’t agree at all. Express-1 depends on contracts as much as they...

    uShip, a real value to expediting?

    OK here is something to think about, there is a paradox with uShip and Expediting. As Leo mentioned that the article stated “ebay users looking for cheap shipping” and that is my point entirely, everyone (shippers) wants cheap freight but we will eventually pay for all of this. I mean that...

    uShip, a real value to expediting?

    I am not trying to be so negative all the time, but after reading the article about uShip on EO, I am trying to figure out if there is a value in trying to deal with the public in this form or for that matter having a clearance center for freight without any requirements for the carrier. I can...

    Secret of success??

    OK I admit ... I have a cluttered van and in the cargo area is worn and has oily streaks from the oil containers I have hauled. I hate dirt and grim and spend some time cleaning it out almost every run. I still haven’t finished the bunk or the wiring for the lights, so I still have tools and...

    Panther II policy update

    This stuff is typical in the IT industry. I almost took a Bank to court for breach contract over not being paid as agreed to in the contract. I was done with the assignment (which was signed completed by the president of the bank) and they simply refused to pay me. What a number of companies...

    ::: FL Sprinter :::

    There is no difference between the two. the Sprinter is made by Mercedes. In Europe as a Mercedes and they (D-C) thought it would be better to market under Freightliner but chrysler needed a van and D-C did not want to have competing trucks in the same market. I hear this from the guys who are...
