    Up date on my Sprinter. Turned out to be a holed no 1 cyl. There were parts of a valve, injector and glow plug on top. MB mechanic did comprestion test, after I agreed to replace the high pressure fuel pump. Had it transported to Wyane’s place from Nashville, TN. He has a good used engine...

    FRESH START FEBRUARY

    FRESH START FEBRUARY

    Broke down Thursday morning, halfway through a 1800 mile trip. Not a easy one this time. Engine shut off at highway speed. $4000 and still not running. Maintenance fund is going to be crying. LOL. Enjoying Nashville and chilling!

    NYC LONG ISLAND FREIGHT RATES

    Sprinter van, XPO, the few load offers we have had dropping in said area. Yes they offer a premium, not as good as a year ago. Depends on customers requirements.

    XPO to sell pieces of itself, or will OntarioVanMan get his dime.

    I’d say, good marketing of the brand. Article stated stock price traded higher. As for the dime, it’s now worth about a nickel.

    November 2020 Is For Turkeys

    Like the way the question was. The Discount Tire salesmen basically stated that the Agilis Cross Climate was a improvement on the Discover. Better wear and load carrying design.

    We got the standard 35 cents per mile. XPO has a hard time competing in the great N/W, kind of figured to drive south. Always a crapshoot, but we have family getting up in their years.
