    GM cuttaways are 139" and 159". Extended vans are 155". I used the word conversion because to me it is a conversion. Again, they have two 139" w/12' cargo and the 159" w/14' cargo.

    I added to my previous post #20 to help clear some stuff up. Like I said their web site is not put together well at all. Hopefully their trucks are better than their web site.

    I think I see the confusion. Just went to their site. What they are describing is a 159" chassis but the pictures are of a 139". That's another of their problem, they can't put a good web site together. Another problem is a lot of tire kickers in this business as well as others and only two...

    They have 14' on the 159" because the body comes out behind the w/base. The back end is fiberglass. Hard to explain.

    First off it is NOT a stretch. GM has two w/base chassis. 139-159. The regular size van sits on a 139 and a 3500 extended sits on a 159 wb chassis. I have seen one. The take a van and cut the top and rear off and ad a fiberglass top. The top unit has swing doors. It is not a Turtletop...

    http://http://www.maxxautocorp.com/products.php Maxx has nothing to do with Turtletop Manufacturing. Maxx Auto is located just out of Nashville Tn and Turtletop is in Indiana. Maxx was selling their units.

    Almost a year ago I tried to buy a Turtletop/Ultramax from these people. Had money in hand but they would not respond. I have since found out they had 25 Turtletops ordered from Turtletop manufacturers and never took delivery. I think they are having financial trouble but don't know because...

    New Driver - Now having MPG Issues - Questions??

    New driver is probably it. He could also just be letting it idle and that sounds to me like it. Most new drivers think the governer is the place to run a diesel. That's not the way anymore.

    U Ship

    For me the hassle isn't worth it. Watch for some shippers, they might agree on a price than on the other end welch on some of it (damage etc). A lot of people shipping on U Ship are buyers off the internet and wholesalers, looking for the real deal. Be careful.

    Denver CO, must be worse then Laredo.

    I hear ya on the El Paso. My rule and my rule only after 11 yrs I don't go to the border in Texas unless it's the last week of the month or the last two weeks of the quarter. That's the only time I've gotten out. If I'm in one place more than 48hrs it's because I have friends near by or a...

    Denver CO, must be worse then Laredo.

    13 day's wow. I guess it comes with experience. Most dispatchers won't level with you or at least don't have time too. I believe like I said before, head to El Paso. Who are you driving for??
