How much lighter are you after the repair? Could help people compare with simular engines Davekc

Thunderhorse What are you reading? Zing made no comment about Panther. The thread has nothing to do with Panther. The only mention of them is by you and a couple of minutes ago by remus As mentioned, you are appearing to have another agenda, or you simply don't understand what you are reading...

We use to have a couple of those beauties back in the Roberts days Davekc

Is this 4500 the same as the one on the general forum. Kinda like a pickup truck front. That is the $50,000 quote I got at the show. Regular vans were more in the mid 30's Davekc

The super "B" could be an issue with some companies. The larger version should qualify for a "C" unit but would be limited on Hazmats loads (DOT rule for cargo box to be separate from sleeper & cab) and maybe dock heigth. Davekc

The one I was referring to had a fantastic sleeper. Very roomy. It was simular to a freightliner highrise columbia. You could stand right out of the seats and go to the back. Base price on the truck show model was $50,000. Add a sleeper and generator, you should be at high 50's. If it can get a...

That looks like the one I had seen except his was a ford deisel Many companies are not currently putting vans on, but I think there will always be a market for them. I liked the one at the MATS show. I think it could be put on as a "C" unit with many companies. Davekc

LDB We may have ran into the same guy. The one I ran into was a single driver, (I think Harry) and he was with Landstar. I ran into him down in Waco, Tx Davekc

Terry You are right on top of things! Davekc

Tough issue, but it is supply and demand that drives it. This applies whether it is FedEx, Panther or any other company. Davekc

Perhaps Zing needed Tact in his later responses, but ultimatly he shouldn't have had to defend himself to begin with When information is not factual, it is not a personal attack when accurate statements are presented. Upon doing his own personal research of the site, he would have found no...

Terry, You did clean your truck out before showing it didn't you?:7 I couldn't resist Davekc

I never did understand where this 4 to six weeks came from? We wait two weeks and that is it. Must be sitting on the paperwork or it is filled out incorrectly Davekc

Gee.......and someone said this was only a Panther site? Nothing negative about Panther? Go figure Davekc owner 20 years

That is not usually a good thing. Not that common on these engines at 300,000. Let us know how it goes. Davekc

I have done that as well. It seems when it happens it is either 10 degrees below zero, or raining like crazy. Davekc

Zing wrote Then i make a comment on something you power trippers dont like and then, here comes all the negatives ratings. Oh well, there's better, more useful, non-political expediting forums out there which which have a growth of 350% since jan. so please dont brag about your 15% growth I...

How much oil is it using? Could be several things. Let us know how it is going. Davekc

Since it is not the high top ect, it should be ok. The weight ratios that Jeff Jones was talking about, would have it in a acceptable range for a class eight. Davekc
