Remember the thermostats? you had to run them under hot water before you installed it because 3 out of 10 were faulty? The new EGR has a siliniod that can blow...it's no big deal. Why oh why do people go to a dealer for an oil change? Just lazy and not too imaginative. Oil changes are like done...

Nothing worse then an empty Sprinter...well maybe an empty GM.

Greg doesn't get mad...he just gets even.....(joking) I didn't consider I was stirring the pot...I was serious. On the other hand I have been known to own a long handled ladle! *L* Citizenship? Here? Me.. OntarioVanMan an American? I have 2 years to consider my options yet...I don't know if...

Ditto what he said....problems? The announcement I heard and not rumour is FORD and Nissan in bed together...Ford will build the truck and Nissan the car for each other.

Guess i fed you guys too much fodder to debate...But Thanks for the lessons. I don't think either one of you are 100% correct because of personal beliefs being intermixed with facts, so I'll take it all in the context of which it was written and go on to explore more of the workings of the U.S...

Steve if you go to the airtab web page it shows that the tabs go on both tractor and trailer to produce a constant flow...they have wind tunnel test results there...

You Americans must be pretty disappointed and confused, besides angry that your government has degraded to this point? The great American lifestyle has denigrated to this level. Capitol Hill is giving you lip service, you write your letters and phone your Reps and still nothing changes for the...

Ok Moot point taken eastern Iowa isn't as hilly as the west side...but none of the hills are that extreme and you shouldn't have to gear down on any of them...And it's true about a tail wind....My MPG's are up when coming back from Rapid City to Albert Lea when coming back into service...

How are your SS tires working out? Any issues, problems, good feedback? Iowa is one of the flattest states and the wind is usually out of the west so you'd have a good tailwind. Only thing I can think of to support Phils thinking.

.02 doesn't sound like much but in a unit your size it's a BIG savings...these are times to be practical not comfortable, if one is going to beat these tough times just got to Git'R' Done.

Are you a thinker? I try it once in awhile and it usually gets me in trouble. I have a Republican friend with the same problem and I want to share his testimony with you: It started out innocently enough. I began to think at parties now and then to loosen up. Inevitably though, one...

I hope they make the locking caps better then when I was a teen...those caps they made for cars were a snap to pop off with the "right tool"!! The ones I've seen in the TS's don't look all that "secure" for someone who knows what they are doing. Better yet would be a cap linked to an alarm...

As far as I know...I was sitting with a Sprinter driver and he was showing me the system...I like it! You know what the fleet is doing and where they are going.
