    What roads to not go on in nyc in sprinter van

    Wouldn't it be nice to have enough time in a job for a road atlas! (Well sitting in traffic near Brooklyn there's time I guess) We're kinda the odd ones out, we can travel on quite a few weight limited routes in a van so the truck GPS'S aren't as useful, but a parkway is a parkway in NY

    What roads to not go on in nyc in sprinter van

    Going to Brooklyn, I had 3 gps's going. Mostly kept me off the parkways but you need to pay careful attention to the signs. The one parkway I realized I was on, lots of dirty looks but no ticket

    Crap. So close to everyday usage Fisker EMotion won't launch with graphene battery; 400-mile range still promised Tesla is still dominating followed by Chevy (I would buy the Bolt) No vans on anything but a designers notepad yet

    Interesting...but you can buy the 2 I mentioned now...a free fuel and maintenance 5 ton would be hard to compete against It will all go to the industry giants first, I won't be putting a deposit down on chassis # 10,000 and expecting it to be in my hands anytime soon, so maybe the other higher...

    Yes, but rather than spend the time fixing it like the hours I used to spend downloading when I was younger, I think I might try going outside... Maybe I can convince the kids to put down the phones and go out too?
