Its Saturday?

I should just put in a D4 and be done with it but it kinda burns me to have a perfectly working espar and have to buy another one for the cargo area...maybe by the time I make up my mind it'll be spring and I can save the $$$

Time to do the alcohol tune on the van

Need a creepy smiley

Thanks, thought it was something different...a Chinese knockoff would probably be cheaper if I wanted to go that way

They do know cold.

With all the talk of the webastos and espars, has anyone had experience with the Planar 44d? Its cheaper, Russian, and at least sounds good on paper... I'm not sure that my idea of taking a spare heater core plumbed into the existing Espar is going to heat up the uninsulated cargo area of my...

2 marine deep cycles that charge off the normal starting battery, can be connected or not with manual switch. Yes the espar is great but when im in a rush I dont wait for it. Going to drag out my Olympia propane catalytic, the cab heat out of the Espar was laughable at -14, but im sure the...

They came with the older sprinters. Works well, and the only way to warm up short of hitting the highway

Other than being asked for gas money by guys driving Cadillacs, I've never been bothered, and I sleep with the windows down. Now the police in Willoughby Ohio "the courtesy city" thats another story... I say buy. And buy a gun too. Then you're covered

Don't know why you guys have to plug in. My last few vans started fine down to -40's and ive never plugged in. 2000 cold cranking amps...i can leave this sprinter for a couple weeks and it fires right up... Turned down a Laredo, Christmas and medical appts...Laredo's not going anywhere

Been home. I have an excuse after falling off the roof putting up lights :D

You have to post a link. So far this is what my research has come up with

Hey I like it. Of course I like a 1982 Ford Fairmont too. And Dodge Omnis

New design, dpf is on engine not pipe :eek:

One day there will be an Uber style revolution in trucking, and the practice of flipping a shipment through multiple brokers / carriers will disappear. When I'm updating 3 companies PLUS my own carrier on my location, I have a pretty good idea where the money went with each taking 20% (Edit...

So...the "old" 4 cyl is being discontinued for a new 4 cyl design and I see the dpf and such is directly part of the engine, not the exhaust pipe...dare I hope they fixed it? Anybody with some inside info, give it up! Link to some tehnical motor introduction info, haven't absorbed it yet myself...

If you're ready start calling. Don't put the phone down till you've got a load confirmation from someone. Rinse and repeat Make sure you've got a good bluetooth and unlimited phone plan...good luck, you're doing ALL the work, but keeping 100% for the extra trouble

Interesting discussion...wonder what it will take to get the rates up again if the economy does well in the near future...will there be enough to bring on a shortage of cargo vans? The only way I see the shippers coughing up extra is when the freight starts sitting on the dock...

Sign me up! I'll just take cargo van loads, no worries about dock high... (Edit: sprinter towed on flatbed, for pickup and delivery lol)
