    New App for Sprinters & Cargo Vans

    I truly don't understand. No I don't think it's a conflict of interest (mostly because I believe people should be able to do what they want) Most of 12 years, I've been with the same carrier. Yes I would throw them under the bus in a tenth of a second if it benefits me (as they would do, and...

    DOT Inspection

    Curious, is it required? In Ontario we have an MTO inspection, where you get to place an ugly yellow sticker on your van. Haven't done it in 12 years, as under 10k aren't required to. However they won't say no if you ask for one

    Another sign we don't have long

    Waymo, the closest to Level 5, is still full steam ahead, although others have voluntarily or been forced to halt testing. Unfortunately (or fortunately if you hate working) rather than slow things down, it may just change the winner of the race to full automation. I don't think these systems...

    Cargo Van Best Van to Buy

    Since we were all reminiscing, how about the Ford E350 with the 7.3 diesel? 1 million miles and I touched neither the engine nor transmission, 21 mpg loaded, poor van had 3 trans flushes and maybe 50 oil changes for that mileage lol (good thing it took 16 quarts) Closest mentally I've got to an...

    /// / No thermostst for a year....How bad is that on engine ? ////

    It's $4000. Make your best deal from that price. If it satisfies everything else, equipment, condition, accessories; and you are comfortable with the engine replacement / rebuild IF it becomes necessary, it will probably last far longer than it should. I only buy "special" vehicles with...

    Well no. But, for those who thought it wouldn't happen in their working lifetime, robot trucks are doing long hauls for customers RIGHT NOW. I doubt anyone will see a difference today. Tomorrow? Who knows...

    Mechanical 2005 Sprinter Recall

    Until forced by a failed emissions test, do not get the recall. Various unfixable issues will ensue (including possible failure of your instrument cluster) check it out on sprinter-source.com If it was good enough for 13 years I don't get it, seems like a money grab to me
