That's lazy mechanic work. You mean they were trained to start replacing parts from the bottom up until it's fixed. Testing those items would cost a few minutes, replacing everything is easier (and lucrative at their markup) I made myself stop guessing and started buying better tools, like an...

That's an intelligent analysis. This job is a waste of time unless A- you love it or B- you have an "in" to something most people don't. I have both, so it's worth it. But I can count on one hand how many deliveries were worth taking into the USA last year - the rates are simply too low Sent...

If you were me, you'd buy a 2004-2006 sprinter and carry tools. And enjoy years of not breaking down under load. Or being towed. Of course, you aren't me. Buy something and drive. If you buy brand new it could still explode from a defect. IMO just get going and try to steer the ship. I...

Well I set a goal of $6000 this week. So far $5300 so it looks good. Camped out where my company was short drivers in an effort to escape my financial death spiral. Haven't been on in awhile, family issues. Always family issues. Maybe after really working for a week, they'll appreciate me...

Just in case you're actually being serious... Google map timing should never be used. It's simply a best guess, and doesn't include all the factors - traffic and weather change in real time, and if you have good internet, so does Google's estimates There's a free app on the play store called...

The emergency alert system went off in the middle of the night here. Nuclear incident at the Pickering nuclear plant Not only did I silence the alert and go back to sleep, so did everyone in my family :tearsofjoy: Yes it was a false alarm. Fortunately for us, because nothing is important...

So this is why people say you should stay in shape. Never know when you have to run :oops:

Can't figure out a good Jan thread name. So happy New Year!! Said here

You noname :cool: congrats

MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYBODY!!! Kids are older but it's still tiring. Wife got perfect presents for everyone again, I supplied the muscle. Biggest hit was the new Nerf guns. I can shoot my 21 year old 10 times in less than 3 seconds (then change mag for 10 more :tonguewink:) Hope everyone has...

Thanks for the answer. I've long since decided to stay under 10k, more money left at the end of expenses. I'd be trying to get into Amazon with a big truck now, if for no other reason but knowing they have the cash to lose billions taking over trucking Sent from my SM-A705W using Tapatalk

Last one I saw towing was a 50's pickup, so that's an improvement Nobody told me losing weight would make me look like a wrinkled sock. All hand delivering lately, constant dripping sweat. Today was a break, I just had to stuff 5 skids in my sprinter and unstuff at other end. Dripping sweat...

What I want to know is how you knew she bought a Kia

Go easy on me. All my pride isn't burned away yet Sent from my SM-A705W using Tapatalk

This month's Golden Tip: DON'T piss off your wife I just learned mine bought a new car. Nope, didn't ask me anything.

(In OVMs defense, it's also a Canadianism for electric cause most of ours is hydroelectric. Wouldn't want him getting strip searched in those Hawaiian shorts, it's cold outside)

3050 is my 2005 weighed limit. Up to 50 lb, some boxes are 10. Nobody cares in my 20 mile route circle anyway... I won't get past 40 mph all day Sent from my SM-A705W using Tapatalk

Heading to a warehouse. -13 degrees today (9F). Repeating "it's not that many boxes" over and over to make myself feel better. Last day out was 62 boxes and it felt like it. Blew the wheel bearing in my handcart, they're up to 50 lbs ea, this ain't Amazon. Course a week ago, I was sitting with...

And a delivery! Until they heard the price. Doesn't matter. I was busy mentally casting a bass guitar out of clear acrylic Stayin aliii...III..iiiiyi...iiive ...
