Geo thanks for that info... keep the contacts coming the more we know the better informed we'll be. I'll take a 20 or 22 ft box. No ready to go trucks this is a project in the works, not sure if I'll do it but I'm pricing everything out. If I can do the stretch and box for $10-12k then it is...

Very little info on this in the expedite online forums. A lot of other trucking sites talk about frame stretching and I've heard report of $3000-8000+ I'll start making some calls here soon and report back with prices. Someone has to do it. Truck manufactures didn't design machines around...

What do you consider stupid long? I run local and long hauls. Try to stick to 50-500 miles or 1400 out, so when I take the long hauls I'm forced to stay at that location until I get something coming back.

You probably banked that in the hay day of expediting I'm assuming. Bonuses, Coast to Coast runs, moving non stop. Id be dead tired if I did that many miles in a 06 Sprinter. I think I've got around 300k almost between a bunch of 06 Sprinters, current one just hit 200k but I've only been in the...

Wish I could send the truck back to volvo and have them stretch the frame like this one here. At least I should be able to call them for proper specs to provide to the shop. Volvo s VNM 200 in a straight truck configuration drew its share of - Mid-America Trucking Show, Day 3 - Photo Gallery -...

Low fees and non forced dispatch. Bring it on. ;) Somebody give the people what they want.

Let me get a new truck either newer Sprinter or 2012 VOLVO VNM 630 (Cheaper then Sprinter) and then I can run more miles and get home frequently. Upgraded seats and I'll be ready for the where the wind blows :)

Still need to consider insurance cost. The price of the truck isn't bad. I can get into one for less then a price of a new Sprinter. This one got away from me, hard to beat a Southern no rust truck. Looks to be in great shape. So much for a $100k Cascadia in the classified section, don't need...

Saw a Blue Beacon today in Weatherford Tx. They want $18.50 for a wash and plus $5 for the undercarriage. Mines well wash it myself and pay the $5 for undercarriage if they will let you do it that way... :confused2:;) Not sure if a $24 truck wash is worth spending on a 06 Sprinter with over...

$1.99 diesel in STL and Houston right now still... ;) Filling up tomorrow.

Well I'll run a few scrap loads, maybe I should run Tx to Michigan/Chicago then run some local runs for a week or two then get the big one back to Tx. I also can do Canada so that helps.

Its gotta be a VOLVO VNM64T630. Its the best entry level truck, best fuel economy. Drives like a day cab. Dart has some on their fleet.

Hall of Fame in Cleveland or Detroit :D

Yes you can but they penalize you and stop giving you loads and make you feel bad about it by calling you a cherry picker. Also what is their CV rate, they are a carrier that sees no value in Hi Roof Sprinter style vans.

What are the rates for straights w/ fuel surcharge and weekly deductions on a 30k straight at V3?

What are the rates for straights w/ fuel surcharge and weekly deductions on a 30k straight at V3?

Is V3 forced dispatch or do they let you go out to CALIFORNIA? What is the rate w/ fuel surcharge for straight truck and do they hire SPRINTERS currently?

I dont like the words they will keep you sounds like a panther forced dispatch state of mind.

NOPE not to my knowledge

Tandem for sure I think its a lot easier to convert and less expensive when you leave the original wheels in place. KW dealer up in Minnesota has a fleet of these things. VOLVO VNM64T630 Trucks For Sale - Page 1 of 1 Like this guy says these are great starter trucks and the price is nice...
