    hi everyone

    I have had my Fantastic Vent for 7 years. It has over ½ million miles on it. When I buy a new van I will pull the Fantastic Vent and install it in the new van. Still runs smooth and quiet.

    Chef Dennis's New CargoMax

    It gets even worse. 10,000 - 7,725 = 2275 lbs. Add about 200 lbs. for fuel, weight of driver(s), E-track, etc. to the curb weight and the cargo weight capacity is well below 1,700 pounds.

    DuraMax diesel

    Hey Weed, what was that dealer selling, cars or something else. The DuraMax will add almost 600 pounds to the curb weight. Something to consider, especially running team.

    EBORs Who Else is Disturbed by this Infringement

    On a paper log if it took you 32 minutes to fuel it would be logged as 30 minutes.

    Solar powered Auto Air Conditioning

    I would think any solar panels large enough to power an AC unit would create significant wind drag and reduce fuel mileage. Maybe if the solar panels were integrated as part of the vehicle, like the roof of the box or a cab fairing.

    Equiptment use fees

    Incentivize? That just doesn't sound right. Couldn't find it in my Webster's New World Compact School And Office Dictionary.(paper and ink version) I did find it in the Merriam-Webster on-line dictionary. I also found it in the on-line Urban Dictionary. I won't reveal that definition...

    Fuel Surcharge & Carrier Obligation

    GIVE a FSC? Or is the carrier required to charge a FSC? Exactly! I don't believe Cheri meant that the carrier was morally obligated to pass along the FSC. I certainly didn't. It would just be the nice thing to do. Or covering the increases in the cost of fuel through their published rates.

    Fuel Surcharge & Carrier Obligation

    Ooooh, nice font! I agree, fuel surcharges should be passed on to the party paying for the fuel. Originally fsc's were established to help carriers deal with unpredictable swings in fuel prices. Carriers could adjust the fsc as necessary without constantly changing their published tariffs...

    Try to buy as little fuel as possible on 4-15

    Almost a million people on Facebook can't be wrong, can they? I suggest that not only do we not buy fuel tomorrow, but we purchase and consume a gallon of castor oil. We'll show them! We'll show all of them that we the people are a force to be reckoned with. Tsunami!

    Debris Removal Charge?? Permission From Dispatch??

    Highway star hit it at post 131. I'm not sure why it took a 131 posts. I have never had anyone request I remove pallets from their property. I have put pallets in their dumpster or out back in the pallet pile. When I sign for freight I include the pallet(s) in the piece count; e.g. 2 shrink...
