Here we go!

Alas, they came to the conclusion that you should buy a 4wd sprinter. Have to wait until they sell for less than 5000....

Newfie/hoser 4wd...cable goes around rear wheel to front wheel through roller guides to clear the body...drawn with my fat finger since pens don't work on my touchscreen...

Maybe just the one shipper in my case with the 1500 lb steel baskets. Gonna try sealing the floor to make it slightly harder / slippery, I'll post back later with my thoughts. I know the floor absorbs water, there's about 3 roof leaks going on I just noticed...

Yes it was 80 degrees yesterday but I like to plan and jump on deals when they come up... Had a Dana 60 in the Ram Van and never been stuck (snow over hood in Buffalo even their 100000 dollar storm response vehicle got stuck) No luck on Internet for locker...

Put a clothespin on the top part and drape it over you. Just don't forget about it and get tangled, ouch

Question: had a route before, stuff had to get there...never pulled over for weather...several people mentioned rain...is there something I should know about the sprinter?

Can I polycrylic the stock floor, or too soft?

I can see the soft double board that came with the sprinter won't hold up very long...with weight savings in mind what should I cover it with? I'd also rather not pull it up, it's riveted in... Cheap wood flooring, or roll flooring? Anything new out there you've tried? I am aware of all the...

10 years from now I can see owner ops running follow the leader fleets with no employees... Scratch that, the big companies will use it to solve the driver shortage, then maybe start cutting employees, they can afford them first. I really need a van that will work for me while I do important...

Managed to get the sprinter seat to tilt and snoozing sitting up, board was not so comfy . . . question, is Jim's Truck Stop in buffalo near a hospital or something, siren literally every 5 minutes, and got these yahoo's running their trucks because it's 80deg out and they seem to need a 500hp...

7 hour drive with no LHM, kept RPM above 2000 by shifting....delivered and went into LHM 3 times on way back needing a pull over and turn off... Parts on the way to "fix" egr permanently, total cost 3.41 Canadian (plus 25 shipping) it's a well known Internet "fix" for egr...I'll post if it...

As a former CNG user, not sure how going out of your way to find natural gas will jibe with HOS. Hopefully fuel agnostic means you won't be forced to park it if no CNG fuel is available. I had access to 3 close together Cng stations on a route and it was normal for 2 out of 3 to be inoperative...

Yep. Call me the deadhead king. Fortunately there's some decent local lately. Too tired to drive home so I'm waiting...hope not forever....

I did that one every Friday back in the day. Not sorry to see it go, man u must have been crazier than me, I thought starting out in Cleveland was bad

Score! Does that count as posting private info?:p

No no...that was after the leisurely 2 hour drive to the border, 5 hours total...at least I averaged 22.88 mpg in the hills.

Is ontario to WV still a shorty if you wait 3 hours for the freight to clear? Napping on a board in the sun in the cab of my unfinished sprinter, awaiting the glorious backhaul

Nope I turned the cap 180 and retightened it, smell gone....sprinters are finicky

Mines definitely original
