TW... My Dodge I can get a 48" pallet in as long as it's not too high. I know cause I just did it again yesterday. I call it T-boning. The skids were about 1200lbs each and I don't like dragging them across the floor if I don't have too. The van has the barn doors on the sides. I don't care the...

TW, JuJu prefers the i-495! No accounting for preferences of course...haha One other little draw back on the Sprinter the sliding side door only 40 inch opening I like to be able to slide a skid in thru the side especially if it's 2 different drops and I don't have to drag the 1st one along floor.

TW.. JuJu says she'd take the beltway anyday! She lived there 30 plus years before moving to The Great White North!!! She says whats your pref? Key Bridge or the Baltimore Tunnel? went to the dealer to-day killing time, they had a few 2004'sprinters there in different lengths. The one I really...

Wabbit.. Yeah after 2pm seems like a requirement, I suppose they make it during the day and we take it out in the evening for an A.M delivery time! BUT here in S. Ontario we run alot of locals Like Kitchener to Scarboro or Ajax to Hamilton We can rip off 2-3 hundred a day doin locals AND still...

Wabbit! I just did the usual watched the flag drop and first 40 laps and woke up and seen the checkered flag drop! Way to go Dale Jr.! Yep all the barrel time was coming into your country...I'll betya the next security alert will be just in time for the May longweekend Ole Tom Ridge hasn't...

TwMaster...20 hours a week and $$$ that much? Damn I want your job! I always wondered how much the guys over in the courier division where makin, I've done a couple of their runs when they breakdown or time off. I don't know whats worse downtown traffic or border crossings. But I am starting to...

Tony...I noticed the roundness but the square peg in round hole didn't occur to me till you pointed it out. But I do know the door will retract far enough to be out of the masts way on the FTruck. Wouldn't it be prudent to have a heavier bumper or say a 8in wide like a step? This would keep that...

I've had no personal experience with the aerocell but we do have one on the fleet and talking to him he's had no out of the ordinary problems. The flip up back door has a stop pin that can be removed and reset so the door almost retracts completely to facilate fork trucks. The barn doors worry...

Wabbit...Great to hear things are pickin up fur ya! I was talkin to yet another of your brethren but a Canuck one he said hes not really stopped for the last couple weeks! Not bad for Feb. I guess, Funniest thing last week at the Detroiter, I was sitting jawing with a Conway Now van driver when...

Why more men drivers then women truck drivers? Men have very powerful sets of sitting muscles, developed by evolution, that enable us to sit for extended periods of time without getting tired. In prehistoric times, it was often necessary to sit in one spot for long periods of time while...

Jan. so far has been a great month here *crossing fingers*...Last Friday we ran out of all truck categories, They even called in the dedicated van drivers to help out! If this keeps up a new van is real possible for NEXT year my Dodge keeps running great and never lets me down, It runs so good...

Me neither, in the spring I intend to do a little fishin and check out the E350 Unicell body as Unicell has a big place in Mississauga. My next vehicle (now I've been in this biz for 2 yrs) I know what I want for accessories and really need.

was it a courier truck? Maybe the driver had all his load on the shelving on one side? you know up the side of the inside wall and he turned to the other side. If the top selves had wieghty objects and the sprinter does look like it wouldn't take much to be top heavy. Remember the first Toyota...

I haven't seen anything like that. BUT I did see 2 of them stuck in snow BUT that too could have been driver error. 2 UPS.
