Local delivery apps are here. I see two in Toronto area, one advertising in my home town. $150 to $300 a day delivering to construction sites. One listed the fact that you have to go in to home depot and do the buying tho. Not sure if I'm into that...unless the quality is good enough that I...

Watched that whole thing. For some reason it made me put on the laundry and take those Christmas decorations out to the garage. I don't take cheap freight but skip the honey - do and that's what my life would look like

I appreciate this Moot. Tossing around the gasoline idea.

Weird. I guess my cash in hand policy has insulated me...never heard of that scam. Possibly the only useful thing the Ontario government has ever done: forced "buy and sell package" listing previous owners, mileages reported, title status, and liens. You can't transfer an ownership (title)...

Happens every year. Fingers crossed it doesn't last till April :D

Btw I think we've had this conversation before. Short term memory loss

Wow a few YouTubes later and this thread blows up. I saw it was a 3500 therefore useless. Which doesn't stop one from selling it here, and staying home for a year ;) (Former coyote transport or a few bloody bullet holes i wonder)

You can do that with newer vans? Maybe I gotta ask for Laredo run

Scumbags have left, individually...keeping their bonuses...new office took the orphaned drivers over. But, they are a trucking company...these are nice Scumbags :p

You need to separate large companies that pay drivers a flat fee per mile regardless of what they earn, from large companies that do a proper split. This is accomplished by chatting with a LOT of drivers I haven't seen small companies in the van world that have proper access to good freight...

Suits may freak over bonuses, but that's far from changing their business model. (Edit: my current carrier evolved out of a lawsuit. They simply closed the office down, opened under another name, and paid nothing. Dragged on 10+ years...)

No ad says "2014 Feightliner Sprinter" it's a chinese clone :D Something is up. There is a 0.5% chance they're too rich to care...id be looking if import wasn't such a hassle

They need to go home or stop running. Not for a day, for a month. Bring the country to its knees, and do enough damage to make a memorable impression. Being paid by the mile is ridiculous. Of course the only way to make money is to drive unsafely and speed in horrible conditions. Truckers...

If that's the case - I need a 26' 5 ton deregulated to 9920 lbs :D Edit: I might give him a call...owning thru an American corp would give me US license plates and some possible new state to state opportunity :p Don't ask, don't tell...

OK. They were doin it wrong Passed with flying colors. The machine was trying to tell the last two places they were freaking morons and to go home, certifications revoked SMOKE TEST not PLUG IN. Course they would have had to read the message on the screen in front of their face...

Unfortunately in Canada 4500 kg = 9920 lbs = regulated. I like his vans tho

I keep stopping on the srw cubes and eyeing that width. At least once a month I get a call to rescue a light straight sized load...paid accordingly... Adjusted my attitude rereading the stephensservice.com and "the fatal flaw of Mercedes-Benz sprinters" interweb sites. Then I came upon...

Answer: gas if it comes with highest GVWR Oil change cost: free + oil and filter (not seeing a dealership again) (Edit: anyone that knows me will understand I go thru this everytime something frustrating happens with my Sprinter, I'll start vomiting when I think of the payments) Have to get...

Situation: our emissions testing gets scrapped in April, mine's expired now. Problem: when connected to the machine, my Sprinter is not allowed to complete the test. In fact, the second location I tried, the machine called "home" for a video conference. I've heard some sprinters have been...

One that doesn't come out to $66,000 plus tax like the one on my build site
