    Log book for vans

    I suppose the cops and scale people could use the operating #'s we have to display as an identifier that we vans run long. Here in Ont. local jo-blow carpenter or breadman doesn't display them. And also the provincial Gov. doesn't recognize vans for commercial taxes. We can't claim Prov. Tax...

    The long and the short of it all. After much thought and careful consideration, we've decided to put some money into our 99 Dodge for these reasons: 1: We have a couple years yet to pay and we'd never get what we need for a down payment. 2: Besides needing to good tune-up and some ball-joints...

    Expeditors Dream Van

    Tony....I was having some of the same thoughts. The bed is unusable under load even if ya have a team driver. Personally I like the idea of ,maybe a fold down from the front that would in the up position double as a second bulkhead since a bed is only useable on a layover. A fellow with us that...
