Insurance pays $ :)

There is no guarantee when the freight is not on the truck, I'd expect a $50-100 dry run.

Hoping to have a pink panther coming next week, stay tuned for details :)

I'd be ok with the no personal use for the price of $50 a day. :)

Which carrier are we talking here?

Would be nice to pull this off. Could make a sleeper out of a chopped up sprinter, wanted to take the mid section from a sprinter high roof and weld it to a 14ft or 16ft Sprinter box truck 6 skid capacity 5000lbs. I think I'd exceed the weight allowed and would have to start scaling and logging...

Just bought a another 06 Sprinter High Roof, there is a nasty gash dent on the rear quarter panel, does anyone know of a place or someone in OHIO area that can help make it look better, the truck is going to be there the next week getting some work done on it. Looking to do it for a...

Can they manufacture a Sleeper for a Sprinter Box truck that is ultra light weight to comply with DOT regulations that won't exceed the GVW ratings?! :)

That 4 to 6am is a tough one for me, other two no problem. 2-4am can be tough but not as bad as that 4-6! Gotta watch what I say here but dispatch can be real pushy sometimes when they don't know what the driver is going through mentally, physically, yes it is important to get the load on time...

I don't do 5am drops unless I can get there right at 5am and then drop and crash. It screws with my sleep. I do up to 3am or 8am+. :)

How is business back in Chicago and Detroit, is freight moving there? I may be headed that direction from a painfully long distance :) Might be able to get a snow mobile on board to cover fuel :)

Yep and no record. I have crossed in Montreal Toronto and MI last spring, summer over 7-10 times with no hassle. Got search once or twice but never denied entry.

I was wondering if it would be possible to take a Sprinter box truck, and push the wheels back a couple feet then add a sleeper extend frame and push the box back so the wheels are in middle of box. I think you would have to modify the drive shaft which I don't even think is possible on Sprinter...

04-06 more reliable better mpg, 07 and newer are more comfortable I've been told. I think the redesign will hopefully be in 2016

You will need shipping papers aka BOL etc to get into Canada I tried to go to BC this weekend on a pleasure trip and it wasn't happening. They discriminate against Sprinters with beds in the back. Searched the truck for a hour, tossed my bed upside down, stuff that was in the front was tossed to...

8 Years is correct (called today). You can get a 2005 on if your recruiter approves. Most likely if it is a clean low mileage Sprinter they will allow it (if you send pictures and get it pre-approved) since they allow weight up to 3000lb on their Sprinters and the extended ceiling is always a...

Re: Are Any Expedited Carriers Concerned with keeping on Own/Op with current low rate Last I heard when I looked into a straight the fed was paying 2.15 a mile with FSC. and 1.05 a mile for cargo vans. That was a couple years back.

My monthly operating cost is very cheap... I'm about to sell my Sprinter and get a bigger one. Problem is I have a 140 Sprinter and on with a smaller carrier. In order to be successful I need new carrier and larger truck. I have one other driver right now so the focus is on that truck. We can...
