    What should a buyer look for when buying a used Sprinter?

    That's why i wanted to go to Penske; their service records are right there :) I do know this: I would want a long & tall 2500, an '05 or newer. My question is more this: What kind of year-specific problems should I look for? I know some of the 5-bangers have some kind of "goo of death" problem...

    What should a buyer look for when buying a used Sprinter?

    Even though my entry into expediting may not occur for a few months, I am still torn about which van to buy. My question is this: If I buy a used Sprinter, what do I need to focus in on when doing my pre-purchase check? I would probably buy it from Penske or Ryder, so I'm sure I'd be getting...

    UR CRAZY no mt $$

    So many people breeze through contracts without reading them, and then are shocked when the other party insists on having them abide by the provisions contained in the documents. I call it the EULA effect, because most people don't read those when installing software, joining forums, etc...

    Can't get a medical card

    That is what I shall do, then :) . Besides, I got at least one girl to say yes to me, and our 25th is next Tuesday :D Hopefully I can get a few loads in the meantime, especially one to SW Ohio on the Thursday before the expo!

    Can't get a medical card

    Could I pass an eye exam? Yes, for a vehicle < 10k. Problem is, the standards for driving a CMV are stricter than they are for a regular license. And thanks Jeff, I know you're just being honest, not mean. Thanks for that. As far as using my authority, of course I should! But one question...

    Can't get a medical card

    Flaw of my nature: I get hurt by being rejected, even though I know **** well it isn't personal. Part of having a bashful nature. It's a long story, but I have striven to raise my children to be a lot more self-confident than I am. As far as courier services, and moving, I'm not sure how that...

    Can't get a medical card

    For five years I have dreaded posting this, but I must know: Will any carrier accept me without a medical card? Here are the details: Right eye 20/80 at best correction. Turned down for LASIK twice because the doctors did not see how my eyesight could be improved. Left eye corrects to 20/20...

    July typically slow? / Big 3 ?

    Good Gawd is the loonie that strong? When I went to Cape Breton, NS in 2004 it was 73 cents :eek: but what an awesome trip that was :D even though the truck s*cked and I had no idea what a KPA was when I went to check the tires :confused: . Boy I wanna go back!!

    Finding Used Box Vans (4-7y/o)

    You got that right! I drove a 1988 UHaul 26-footer from the DC area to Cape Breton, Nova Scotia in 2004. What a POS! Full box, 180 hp non-turbo International 7.3, same engine as found in the Ford diesel vans and pickups of the day. Broke down in Danbury, CT and lost a day while it was fixed...
