I keep moving up the food chain and have never attended any class or meeting. What does that say? I know, "ignorance is bliss."

Without getting into all of the math. A tire that is 265/75r16 will have 24 1/2 less revolutions per mile than 245/75r16 hence the optimism of better MPG.

The tires were not wider they are taller. The circumference is increased therefore you travel further per revolution.

This is very true. My '08 GMC is that way. Wanting to get the optimal fuel mileage out of it when first purchased I changed the rear end from a 4.10 to a 3.73 increasing mileage by 11%. After seeing this improvement when it was time to buy new tires I changed the size from 245's to 265's...

Sounds like to much work but thanks anyway. I was just curious what it looked like. I know what my cost is per mile and I just deduct that from what I make per mile. Simple math. Don't need a spread sheet for that. ;)

I am first to admit that I am very computer illiterate but I can't figure out how to change it from txt to anything else.

Xerxes all I can say is WOW!!!! GET A CLUE DUDE.

My advice is this. You are NOT going to make a GREAT DEAL of money any time in the near future. It takes time "learning the ropes". As others have said, try not having a van payment when you jump in. I bought an 07 e-350 when I came in. I still have payments to make and it has over 400k miles on...

Not a sprinter but I have 420k on my '07 Ford gasser. New starter, alternator, and converters are the only non-typical repairs done. PM is a MUST!!!!

Emergancy brake, trans in neutral, and NEVER sit on a ramp.

It's a big conspiracy don't ya know? All of the old timers on here will lie to you and they are just rolling in the dough. In fact they are so busy they have very little time to spend here on the internet. This site is about to be shut down cause nobody has time for it anymore. PLEASE get into...

HS I apologize for my previous statement. I went back and read a thread that I thought you were saying you were an Obama supporter. It was your defense of Cheri in that thread and an attack on my ablility to do comedy that got me confused. Somewhere in the deep reaches of this feable mind I...

Phil that was an awsome reply. You put into words everything I was thinking. I wish I had your talent.

I have to agree the worlds best place for info on our business is right here at this site IMO. hOWEVER, HS, TH, Cheri, You guys are all hung up on her "lack of experience". I say isn't this the way of the future? A man with only 143 days of senate experience is now our president. Cheri and HS...

xteam do what you want. If you want to do this book, more power to ya. Just remember there will always be critics. Its easy to give opinions but alot harder to have actions. Its the same as what they call an armchair quarterback. All talk and opionionated but have they EVER written a book or...

Heres my thought. Why rent when you could buy? With the amount of forclosures out there there are some great deals being had and your monthly payment will be less then renting. BUT this is all continigent upon your cash and credit score.

Multiple personalities. :eek:

I don't read no ga ga good no how. Wait can't make jabs at people. All kidding aside good info was not aware of this.

Excellent post, but hang on to your hat. You are going to get hit from all sides now.

You are in the same exact shoes I was in last year. Did alot of home work and jumped in last nov. I ended up going with a newer used van (under 100k miles) payments are real resonable. I have a ford e350. with that in mind I can actually haul more weight then the 3/4 ton sprinter that most...
