    Where do you spent the night?

    It all depends. If I had to deliver at 7 in the morning and I would get there way early, then I find the closest rest area and stop there. I wake up whenever I need to in order to get to the delivery 1/2 hour before delivery time. After I deliver I find a close by Walmart and wait there, or...

    Carriers race to the bottom

    If history repeats itself, it will be just to pad their pockets. Contractors will not see any more loads than before, the only difference they will see will be less money for the same amount of work. I may be wrong, but this is my opinion.

    EO app won't load

    You have android version 2.3.4. The new app needs 4.0. That is why it doesn't work on our phones. I ended up installing tapatalk and that works on my version 2.3.4 Sent from my SCH-S720C using Tapatalk 2

    EO app won't load

    Mine does the same. The new app requires android 4.0 and that is why it won't work on mine. Maybe his issue is the same. Sent from my SCH-S720C using Tapatalk 2

    Check it out and tell me!!

    I would definitely do some more investigation before replacing the engine. It might not be that bad in the end.

    How did you get Started in Expediting ?

    After I got my Bachelor's Degree I wanted to go see this great country of ours before getting a real job, so I got into trucking. I didn't particularly like having a co-driver nor being stuck in a truck stop. I had a friend who knew someone that was expediting in a van for FedEx CC, so I got in...

    March... Can the cold weather be done now please?

    Whatcha Using ?

    Laptop. I used to use the app exclusively on my Android phone (old Samsung Galaxy Proclaim), put when it stopped working I uninstalled it thinking that if I reinstall it, all will be good. Wrong. Now when trying to install the app it tells me that it is not compatible with my device.

    New ford transit

    I'd pick one of them Fords over the Promaster any day, but then, I think I would pick the Sprinter over both of them.

    EO App not working

    Hmmm, Mine stopped working, then I unistalled, and now I cannot install it any more. It tells me that my device is not compatible. I know I have an older phone, but it worked just fine before this happened. Anybody else has this issue?

    March... Can the cold weather be done now please?

    Boy, winter doesn't want to go away yet. Snow predicted right here in TN. I hope they are wrong. Tired of this already.

    Used Expediter

    Wasn't this the way chef Dennis had his set up? Downgraded to 10k by the upfitter? I haven't heard of him having any problems. BTW, where is chef? Haven't heard from him in a while. Sent from my SCH-S720C using EO Forums mobile app

    Oil, additives and fuel saving products

    Murray, I wouldn't go to 15k intervals without oil analyses to see if you can safely do that. My sprinter takes 2.5 gals of oil. So I started at 10k, then 12k, then 15k and I stopped there. I also stopped having the oil tedted. Good enough for me Sent from my SCH-S720C using EO Forums mobile app

    Oil, additives and fuel saving products

    Murray, Why mess with something that works? Keep doing what you are doing. I have been using good dino oil in my 2004 sprinter since the first oil change. People told me that my engine would disintegrate if I don't use the expensive synthetic oil. Well, I just turned 602,000 miles. No fuel and...

    Retiring - What's my Sprinter Worth??

    A friend of mine just traded in his sprinter, same year and almost same mileage and he was told it is worth only $1700. Of course he dealt with them and got a pretty good deal on a new promaster. Sent from my SCH-S720C using EO Forums mobile app

    The new Sprinter – Setting standards in quality

    Alignment? What is that? :) Never had one done on mine yet. Last set of michelin m/s lasted 180k, and they would have gone 20k more easily, but I wanted a new set for the winter. I am really curious how the front wheel drive in the promaster will work. Will it stay aligned? How about the...
