    My 2015 Ford Transit Experience

    I would think the load range for the tires on the T-350 would have to be "E" to have a 9500 lb. GVWR.

    UPS Linehaul

    Thank you Zorry. I wish I would have read your post prior to retiring last night. I'm sure I would have slept better knowing all about the O/Os at UPS FREIGHT.

    Welcome to June, 2014

    I forgot about the test drive thing. I delivered in Cincinnati late Wednesday morning so I wouldn't have made it. How about a thread on the test drives.

    UPS Linehaul

    It does and it doesn't. It makes good business sense because it keeps the customer happy. It makes poor business sense because UPS Freight (formerly Overnite) isn't set up to service customers directly outside of about a 50 mile radius of their terminals without interlining with another...

    Pro Master

    Does that mean you don't have a reason? There is a significant difference in power specs between the standard 3.7 and the 3.5 EcoBoost. The biggest difference is in the torque and the rpm range where it peaks. 3.7L 275 hp @ 6000 rpm 260 lbs/ft torque @ 4000 rpm 3.5L 320 hp @ 5000 rpm...

    UPS Linehaul

    All I really wanted to learn from this thread was if others could confirm what I was seeing and if anyone had specific knowledge of this. I do know that the recent contract between UPS and the Teamsters had UPS raising starting wages and agreeing to more full time positions. I was wondering if...

    UPS Linehaul

    I'm reporting this to Deputy Sheriff Leo. You used a naughty word cleverly hidden in that map. We don't need your stinkin' pile of feces posts where youngins' might see it. You need a 6 month vacation.

    Closed/Locked Threads

    A well respected and distinguished E.O. member brought to my attention that a thread I started had a short run and was locked/closed. I checked. Sure enough there is a big old padlock on it and a sign that reads CLOSED. The thread title is: UPS Linehaul. I read through my original post...

    Do cargo vans even have any sort of future in expediting?

    How are the rates to straight trucks at FDCC now?

    Load One Trucks sitting

    I saw a Load One Sprinter getting on I-90 from I-290 this afternoon. It wasn't sitting. It was moving. I could tell because the wheels were going round and round.

    Well, there was that dipstick from Panther that would come on here and post personal stuff about drivers until someone put a muzzle on him.

    Do cargo vans even have any sort of future in expediting?

    As long as there is 3 skid and less freight, there will be a need for cargo vans. Most shippers aren't willing to pay for a larger vehicle if it isn't needed. Of course if T/T and straight truck O/Os are willing to haul small shipments at cargo van rates then there will be no need for vans...

    Do cargo vans even have any sort of future in expediting?

    Soon you will see my van up on blocks in the front yard, right next to the old refrigerator. One more thing for the neighbor kids to play in.

    Welcome to June, 2014

    A ladder rack on the roof and some empty beer cans on the floor would help you blend in. Also painting your QC dome yellow and adding a brim will make it appear to be a hardhat forgotten on the roof.

    Why not?

    I'm pretty sure when Eleanor was running the country she shared some top secret stuff with Franky and Lorena.
