Thanks I get zero ( unless you call cash price for credit a discount) just making sure I wasn't missing anything, haven't used diesel or gas since 2012

Handgun permits here are harder to get than a nice running Yugo

I do have a sword under the bed...

If you're good with the flywheel defects, it's a good van. Mind explaining the 20-50 cents off the pump price? Is that a carrier perk?

If you haven't pulled the trigger yet, go thru the forums with a fine tooth comb. This is unlike anything you've ever done, and if you had all the information you need, you would know why asking about income is a pointless question. G license up to 26000 IIRC, with hydraulic brakes . . . yes...

What do you do when a pos van is your main income? Buy a pos car? :D Save some of every pay. Myself, I have to get it taken out, I'm not disciplined enough

I'm out. I'm beginning to realize just how different the US operating environment is...thanks to HighTide tho first thing I'm doing is sealing off those vents in the cargo partition of the sprinter... (Edit: make sure that lawyer works off commission they're worse than a bad carrier by the hour)

Don't do it. The raised roof will actually bring down the value and change the stiffness of the van. Insurance has some wiggle out room as well since you modified the van in a major way.(missed the roll cage, you'd have to call your insurance) Unless it's got a zillion miles sell it and buy...

Carriers used to pull shenanigans when they owned the plate . . . back in the day they were perfectly willing to charge you with theft if you didn't comply . . . at best you were left where you were unpaid for that load with an unplated/invalid insurance vehicle needing to be towed

Get the lawyer now. Don't wait (call 8;) Buffalo area will get that) push it till you win. We've been in court 6 years and finally won, they stall and stall so you'll give up. Don't

Happy birthday!!! It's an excuse to party, now that you've got a room

Anything blue-tec. It's at the stage now where epa is doing a review and has requested the information on how Mercedes-Benz does testing. The lawsuit by owners is a separate thing, dangerous to operate, the one test result being quoted is 8-19 times allowable nox in low temperature testing. It...

A Fleet of Self-Driving Trucks Just Completed a 1,000-Mile Trip Across Europe They solved the problem using 1 human...

Hey, I've never been a Dispatcher or broker, I may be talking out of my nether regions. . . at least the future won't be boring!

You're right on every point...for now . . . that's what business is, problem-solving for a price . . whoever figures this one out, and they will, will become rich by replacing the brokers and giving a better deal to drivers and shippers both. I also agree that shippers are not ready for it yet...

Well, this is Toronto here and Uber was ruled illegal until they did just what you pointed out. The drivers must have commercial insurance and a background check. It's a socialists paradise here and Uber caved to operate. I work in the same system you all do and genuinely like and appreciate...

What advantage does a broker / carrier give over today's tech, where a shipper could post his freight and price and a truck could do the same? Sitting for hours bidding could be replaced by entering your lowest desired pay on the truck side and highest desired rate on the customer side, a...

I could see a startup moving in to this crap and getting a billion or few from venture capitalists ... by letting a shipper post and book companies or owner ops themselves...wait it's called uShip...how long do all these shenanigans take before the order gets to a truck! Maybe in the future...

Feel free to give more but they lost me at forced dispatch! ;) I have to agree with you

Never worked there . . . Care to elaborate now I'm interested:D
