now im between thompson, pival.. and adco also trying to get into FF express i heard their the best in the hamilton area where does thompson run? i heard somehwere they dont run you past 600 miles. i was looking forward to the long hauls with returns. Safety first. then net...

They took a PASS on me when i said I will not load over 3000lb ever. thank you to this thread i chose to speak up maybe dont have a job now but I was not gonna be happy.. The guy on the phone actually had to nerve to say "but whos gonna know.. theres still 1500 lb left befoer you...

it can be plated at a higher weight but that does nothing for vehicle structural integrity or operation i understand. still think i should be able to take 2984 not 2660 the 4 wheel drive suspension is raised and better will talk to mercedes directly about this thats the best bet

the 4x4 only weighs 255 extra. i realize thats the difference in my weight and like 40 pounds lol so its not nothing.. however i got a big rebate on this van and it also will add to resale value just a matter of giving that proper weight ticket as u guys said and being upfront...

never ran the other van anywhere close to overweight but ran it empty a lot. it was a manufacturing issue combined with poor workmanship not the way i drove it or loaded it. it was the very first model out there i bought the very first demo of the diesel transit even in...

info sheet on rjr says must be willing to accept loads up to maximum registered vehicle weight.. if the payload is 2660 then thats it. no more. thats still going over by your weight, clothes, 12 v food accesories, straps n :censoredsign:.. why tho is a larger longer van with improved 4x4 suspension...

its a brand new van. want to treat it right. but want to run long stuff and be away. Me first. tho.

if i have 2200 lb on 2 skids and they want me to add another 900 lb skid they can forget it. wont do it. any miles more than 5 off of route they would have to pay extra for to make a second stop u would think.

i think i was just really unlucky and ran into a bad mechanic too at the Ford dealership.. what hurts most is the lack of parts the repairs are one thing but the downtime is ridiculous and they have the nerve to tell me well we werent expecting you to have 140,000km in 1 year.! Duh u...

im gonna try not to overload by any more than 250 lb max..and only so often i got the extended warranty and dont want to void it and i also have a co-signer on the van . the carrier is gonna have to adjust to me. i got a bonus 7000 off the van as they are one of the ones that the...

anybody on here ever run for RjR do u know how often they give u loads over 2700lb i know i have the right to say no they cant legally run me over the gvwr of vehicle but i dont want to sit somewhere either

my past company did every day for a dedicated run to alcoa and back from hamilton ontario

i learnt last winter that all seasons on a rwd are not sufficient.. in that transit nov 12 first snowsquall near whitehall michigan had no traction at all with the all seasons sliding all over the place , had 1700lb of turbine blades in the back too

as ill drive to both laredo and other hot ass places and up as far north as northern alberta.. so winter tires are out of question cuz there is more time spent south then north the 4x4 will be of benefit for snow and weather thats bad and will not be turned on when the roads are clear.

the 4 x 4 system adds over 300lbs but also has improved suspension.. they told me i could negate those 300lbs without detriment. i mean sometimes. if the company thinks im reguarly gonna agree to max out my van or have me pick up an extra skid and go over its not happening a...

i have lost 3 months probably 20,000 $ cdn income due to ford and if i had the time of day i would pursue legal action but I figure least i can do is warn everyone on here do not buy it the diesel at least. anybody else close to 150,000km on it beware

did i look at a transit?? haha the transit i had was the best van until at 141,000km in august it started to lose coolant overheated.. cause was egr cooler failed coolant went straight into exhaust. down 7 weeks no parts . then after 7 weeks put back together...

im about to buy a 2015 sprinter. apparently with the 4 x 4 and extended length the Gvwr is still 8500 and the payload suffers. its baffling that it only says 2660 lbs that cant be right the company im gonna haul for asks to handle up to 3000lbs sometimes can the gvwr be changed at the...

Here i am again. Realuzing my carrier sucks at getting me back. Think that paying 1 40 to 160 a mile one way suffices me coming empty all way.. they dont use load boards. Im trying to find some loads myself and then defer the commision to them. Right now im in Indianapolis. Anything heading...

now at 105,000km (bought brand new aug 1 2014 lol ) no problems what so ever with emissions.. def... so far so good economy in winter on winter tires it went up to avg of 10l/100km or 23 mpg thats typical i always noticed worse mileage in cold and on snows.
