On my Sprinter I have 3 rows of E-track on the floor, from the back door all the way up to the back of the front seats. One goes straight down the middle, the other two are by the wheel wells. I found that this gives me more strapping options. As far a skid puller I have 2 options, a 20 foot...

The only time I tried to get my oil changed at a speedco was in Joplin, MO in june. I asked them if they could do an oil change on a Sprinter and they asked "whats that?". I made up my mind then that I would do it myself or take it to the dealer if I am out on the road.

RE: Do you think expediting for cargo vans is slow I run a Sprinter as well. I have noticed that the van market has slowed down a bit, but I'm still doing good. I mean I'll have my weeks where I am slow but then I have weeks where I get 7-8 loads. The thing I do, and a lot of others won't do...

I run an '06 sprinter and insulated it as well. I used the aluminum bubble wrap on the sides, roof and doors and then used R-19 9" thick insulation and stuffed it wherever I could, Then I put the plastic gray panels back on. For the floor I opted to do 3 rows of E-track from the back doors all...

I still use my Visa card at the J at the rv pumps. Weird thing is that I don't have that $50 limit anymore. So I can fill up my sprinter and get my shower credit.

Well I always keep the phone next to me, but I always try to get the corner parking spot under the parking lot light. Plus if I idle my van I keep the marker lights on.

Good commercial, but one thing comes to mind. The commercials I used to see for the monster truck shows " SUNDAY, SUNDAY, SUNDAY", Ya'll know what I mean.

Yesterday at the Tri State employee appreciation day we had a backup competition. Basically you had to park your truck evenly between the white lines plus get as close to the cone in the middle of the spot without touching it. Well I was a 1/4 of an inch off center in the spot and they measured...

My brother and I will be there.

During the week of the 4th I ran 1300 miles from 2 loads. This week its only wednesday and I'm already over 1500 miles. Not bragging about my miles in any way, just letting you know there are some of us that got lucky and have been running descent during this shutdown. I had no problem getting...

2 questions...lol How much? When can you install the shelves in mine? really good job, this is exactly what I want to do to my sprinter.

My family supports me 100%, to the point that my younger brother is gonna team with me soon. My mom and dad are also looking to get into the field. I guess I was the test dummy of the family, like I always am. As far as relationships, lol. I usually stay out as long as I get loads, be it 2...

I'm on my way to Gettysburg, Pa, hoping to catch the fireworks there. Then pre dispatched for Thursday night pu, fri morning delivery. Even with the holiday this week I am glad I managed to secure a few loads. Hope everyone has a fun and safe 4th.

Tri-State sends them automatically through the QC as well.

I run as o/o solo in a Sprinter with Tri-State. For being solo they still keep me busy and am happy with them. Just like any other company's they have snags once in a while, but for the most part they have been good to me.

Hope to see the truck at the Tri State driver day. Maybe you could explain that trans to me since I'll be needing it. :)

I agree with LDB. I run Sprint's Novatel U720 wireless card that plugs in the USB port. The speed is just a bit slower than my Cable modem at the house. There are some areas where sprint is slow, but thats usually way out in the boonies.I have noticed that as long as I have a signal on my Sprint...

Very nice truck. I like how they are starting to incorporate the larger sleepers into the factory ones. I like the big box sleepers, but this just gives it a cleaner look.

Been playing this game since dec of '06. 100% on time, even though yesterday I picked up exactly on time and the shipper said I was cutting it close, lol. I've only been late twice, both circumstances were out of my control. Once was 10 hours late on a load from peoria to fountain inn during a...
