    New expedite van

    Headlights are easy to change. 6 screws unhook the wire change the bulb. Got pulled over for a blown headlight. Gave the cop all my info he said sit tight I’ll be right back. I was just closing the hood when he walked backup. It was all done.

    New expedite van

    Look at the promaster or Ford transit over a sprinter. With freight the way it is being economical is critical. Upkeep on a sprinter can get very costly. A simple oil change can cost a fortune. Diesel fuel is higher but they get better mileage. At 65 loaded light I can average 18.5-19 highway...

Most customers still get charged inside pu and del, weekend holiday charge and multiple stop off. I’m in a...

    promaster odometer stopped counting miles

    The trans was rebuilt this summer. It’s on you tube actually. Look for 500,000 mile transmission. I just tore into the old motor to see what kind of ware it had. The bottom end is a million mile bottom I have no doubt about that. No ware on the rod or main bearings at all. Still has cross hatch...

    promaster odometer stopped counting miles

    The odometer stopped logging miles around 626,000 miles. Displayed 6 dashes in place of numbers. Sent it in to be repaired and they said there's nothing wrong with it it just won't calculate miles beyond that. Anyone have more than that showing on the odometer? He said I can set it for zero and...

    Cargo Van Non resident PA tax.

    Fedex took monies from my settlement check for it. Just seems this a tax they should be paying not me. This should be passed on to the shippers and consignees in PA. Just keep chiseling away.

    Cargo Van How slow is it?

    Sad thing is there's only a few ways to stop it. The big companies need to stop feeding the rats and unfortunately regulation.

    A step in the right direction

    I remember when I had my big trucks sitting at Budweiser for over 24 hrs waiting on loads. Driver would call and say I’m leaving with the load not waiting any longer. The keg line was the worst. Drivers pulled out empty everyday after waiting 10-12 hrs. Had no affect. Guy dumped his empty kegs...

    EFS card

    Who’s oos because of money? Just wondering if anyone is using this card for gassing up. I find a big spread in money on some van loads. Did a Canada load of few weeks ago that paid just under 1300,00 for 525 miles. Did a Cali load out of Tulsa got paid full rate for DH back to Tulsa. My business...

    EFS card

    Any gas vans using EFS cards? Wondering if they work at the gas islands. T-Chek worked at the pump at Pilot and FlyingJ but not at loves or TA. Had to go inside first. Just wondering if I want to go with the new EFS card or not.

    Xpo or Landstar

    I know a guy with almost 20 years at Ryder that lost his job for a cell phone. No ticket, someone called and reported him. He admitted he was on it and they fired him with no option to come back. They have a zero tolerance for cell phones. He said I figured I'd be honest and get wrote up. Cell...

    Great new video showcasing Load One.

    Started on a B with a quadraplex. No power steering no air ride seats. Seats were bolted to the floor. Stack of springs 16” thick. The wing window would break your pinky finger it was that close to the steering wheel. Didn’t have enough power to pull a sick whre off a poop pot. I’m that old lol.

    Can i screw into the floor of promaster in the front floor?

    Remove the airbag sensor in the seat. Remove the seat plug in the sensor and secure it. Leave the frame from seat in place build on top of that. You can also buy a new seat sensor for the air bag.
