Details: m11 325/375, last trip at 5200 miles round, loaded heavy some, loaded light some ave 10.37. twin screw, 110 condo, weighs 23,000 empty, can load 23,000 if we get it in right. Probably going to put a single steer axle on front as, it loads heavy on the steers real quick. When you get...

I guess my question is - If you don't have the truck on the road, and don't know if it's a 12 mpg truck or 6 mpg truck, why distress over it now?? I'd suggest you take it for a test drive of about a hundred miles, set the dash to 0 and see what it gets. Then you have a little data to research...

Well folks, I just fielded an Argosy with a 30' van body. That gives me plenty of cargo space. I have a lo-pro unit and the door dims are 103" high. The triple air ride, seat, cab, suspension makes for a velvet ride like I have not experienced before. And, I own a few (quite a few) long...

For one horse organizations a paid for truck can't be beat. When you expand some there will be the need to borrow for the cause. Mainly the reason is, there are very few used units available, spec'ed to provide capacity, or, other features needed by the customer and, requires a substantial...

As an ex-glover myself, and, just being a carrier, a lift gate in my experience, translated more labor, more expense, more weight without any corresponding gain. A lot of people see the liftgate hanging off the truck and think you should use it because it is there. Guess they don't realize it...

Thats exactly right A-team. LIVE IT UP. This is a fun profession. We have both class 7 and 8 3 axle rigs. Both perform as they were expected to. the class7's are able to haul more payload because they are lighter in weight to begin with. Also, they have tags on them and are more forgiving if...

Depends. Like was wrote, depends on how your chosen carrier conducts business. A-Teams carrier wouldn't load them past 12-13,000 lbs, a D rate. And thats ok, if they are happy with that. Myself, I prefer to be able to load and move E rate freight when it is available. You gotta understand...

RE: Would love to drive or co-drive during 2 week Possibility! give me a call at 812 528-8428. I will need toget you insured, so, get moving.

I don't understand why anyone would want controls in the cab to stumble over anyway. My cab sometimes gets busy without that addition. had mine installed in the storage compartment below the sleeper.

RE: You need to have your kentucky # posted on the You don't get stickers. Just a number. And, add it in where your DOT# and MC are.

RE: You need to have your kentucky # posted on the Yes, you must have a KYU number on your big truck, but, only big trucks at 80,000lbs

THANKS EVERYONE FOR YOUR HELP.... i HAVE FOUND A GOOD USED 30'X102"X103" VAN BODY THANKS AGAIN

ARKY: I couldn't even imagine what the cost would be to paint one of them. I know i'm not even going to go into that can of worms and ask. I'm sure the price of a new one would look pretty good, once I looked at the numbers.

Sterling: I certainly hope you have a DOT#, Single State Registration,aKYU, NY HUT, to go with your mc number. If not, the diesel dicks will certainly break your happy face.

Arky: Thanks anyway, but, I don't need a napa blue box on my nice white truck. It would be nice to find an attractive and usable van body used. Thats why i'm asking on this site. New may be my only choice. I will go to great lengths to keep from looking like a sampan wagon going down the road.

Arky: The truck is in, and being streched at Springfield, MO. Arkansas wouldn't be a problem if it is a 102x102x28. Is it easily checkable for you??

Yes, I'd like to know too, what their specific heartburn was. Was it with the tag?? Or, the controls in the cab?? My equipment has the controls in the storage area of the sleepers, because I didn't want them in the cab. Can you help us with specifics?

DD What does your tach show at 65mph? Where is your torque range? I personnaly have my trucks running 16-1700 rpm at 65. Mid torque range at whatever you call highway speed.

Thanks for the comebacks folks!!! I should have typed my needs earlier I guess. I am wanting to purchase a 30'x102x102 with swing doors preferably. A good used one would make me really happy.

Hi Tony and all: I have been operating my Expedite Company since 2002, and have been very happy with the results. As you know an endeavor of this kind is not for the "Super Jumpy" or, underfunded. I like yourself, am sure, would sell my equipment, and my business, IF, the price...
