    Best Power Inverter and Aux Battery available for Sprinter

    House battery is a Bosch AGM Blue top. Is there another model that I can get that would allow me to plug in a 9200 BTU coleman mach 8 cub ac or something with more watts, what would you consider the next step up from a Xantrex prowatt 2000? I'll keep that advice in mind when I purchase next...

    Expedite companies that lease on older vans?

    Yeah I'm sure they do look nice and I'm not arguing there. For me its about keeping the cab noise down and efficiency. Also carriers carriers carriers they write the checks at the end of the day so gotta get those new year models right?

    Flying j vans not welcome exit 583

    That's ridiculous, I'd like to hear the outcome and did you get the persons name who was making threats? Seems like corporate needs to give a call down to that location and send some $12 a hour employees home.

    Promaster diesel?

    I never have seen a Sprinter 225 75 16 load e tire available from Continential. I think I'm going to try out the new sumitomo encounter HT. I'll be the bait at $105 each. Sumitomo Encounter HT for 2006 Dodge Sprinter 2500 158 Inch Wheelbase

    Promaster diesel?

    Wheel base looks to be the same on the 170 extended model if you notice there is a extra two feet back there behind the wheels making the box around 16 ft I think give or take. Haven't really done much dimensional research on them but the new model arrives this summer hopefully they got the...

    Promaster diesel?

    Dpfdelete fixes the problem on the Sprinter. Drive with confidence I've heard promasters have their issues as well. Any 300k promasters out there yet? You're safe with your 05 Sprinter just catch problems before they turn tragic such as the harmonic balancer, black death (if you smell fuel and...

    Best Power Inverter and Aux Battery available for Sprinter

    I currently have a Xantrex Prowatt 2000 and a Trojan 27-AGM Auxiliary Battery but I will be selling the sprinter that it is currently installed in and repurchasing these items or another brand similar. I was wondering if you guys had some thoughts on what works the best and is cost effective but...

    Expedite companies that lease on older vans?

    A decent straight would be a 2010 plus class 6 with a used 72" bentz sleeper and a new box. You're looking at least 60k buy the time you get them to install used sleeper and box. I've decided a extended Sprinter 170 is the best option to take.

    Expedite companies that lease on older vans?

    You have a ton of Class A drivers that just get fed up with regulations etc which creates a huge amount of vans on the road. I've been in the Sprinter game since 2010 so I think I'm here to stay for now until I can make enough to start another business or buy home and just be a landlord or...

    Nice well I will put it to use here shortly. Are the heaters hard to remove I'm trying to take it out of a 06 140 Sprinter w/ 327k and move it to my 06 158 with 197k? Was planning on removing it myself and getting a shop to install it. Can I simply disconnect the heater and just purchase a new...

    Any Winter Time Espar Deals with installation?

    Would you agree that a d2 would keep a well insulated 158 sprinter warm and a D4 would be better suited for a 170 extended? I think I'm going to re use (moving it from 140 to 158) my d2 in the 158 Sprinter because I'm planning to buy a 170 extended in 2017 or 2018. Sounds like the D4 is made...

    Certainly won't freeze I'll be on the west coast enjoying the sunshine. My carrier doesn't charge me fees so I'm no a slave out here, panther days are over. I don't drive the first 90 miles every week for free!

    Kenworth of PA has them all day long for $800. Espar of Michigan has them for only $895 but the install is too expensive.
