    Where should I locate my company?

    Hauling freight in a Sprinter Van most likely. Although I might buy and sell equipment instead. Since I would own all the stuff I'm assuming I wouldn't need the DOT number and the extra insurance etc.

    Cruise Ship communication

    My first question is, why would you want to call anyone on a cruise ship? If it's an emergency dial 911. That's my attitude on vacation. I live in Korea and the international rates on my Sprint phone were wacko $2 or $3 per minute. I use yahoo messenger and with a US address and a US...

    Personal and business use in other states

    156,000 miles per year (MPG)

    I'm sure that one has the air bags dropped down for loading. I doubt it will go up to dock height, but I bet they could make one for you. The fuel savings probably wouldn't be enough to pay for the lifts though.

    Where should I locate my company?

    I have family on either side of the OK-KS border. I also have ties to Nebraska, Missouri, and Illinois. I figure I can live anywhere. What state would be best? I hear Texas has low taxes. California is broke.

    sprinter v ford or chevy

    So who is doing maintenance now? Mercedes Dealers, Freightliner, or both? I think the article I read said that the Sprinter dealership will actually be a separate company from the car company in the US.

    Let me see if I got this straight...

    Illegals don't get all that. Urban legend. Just like when I was a kid people said that the Vietnamese got free cars from the government when they came here. It was all a myth. Some church somewhere probably gave a family a car, but there was no nationwide program. Actually you get...

    There are a couple of helper air spring kits. One goes on the leaf springs and another goes on top of the axle. The one on the axle looks better to me.

    What doyou think Expediting will be like in 2010?

    That makes sense since you can't get the credit for a new home until it's finished. If you order a modular home today you might be able to move in before the deadline.
