Looking into buying a truck to run as an E-unit. I've looked at a ProStar and a Pete 387. Both have Cummins engines. The only real difference is the International has a 9 speed, which I'll have converted to a 13, and the Pete has a straight 10. Just curios what you guys thought about these two...

If you are thinking about getting a Ford Cargo Van I would seriously go with a gasser. this week working in the service department at a car dealership I've seen more Ford vans and trucks with the diesel engines come in than anything else. This is at a dealership that sales and services...

I know when it comes to trucks alot of poeple think a truck is starting downing the "downhill side" of it's life at 500k-750k. What about reefers? What is the point where a used reefer has to many hours on it to think about buying it and getting some good use out of it?

Has anyone here had any dealing with this dealership? Just wondering. I seem them advertised all over, but haven't heard much of them.

If so you may want to read this current issue of Landline Magazine they have an article about the Sprinter. They did a test drive and it was a decent read.

I'm surprised I haven't seen one. That's one of those awnings that they mount on rvs put on a straight truck. Think about it. You could roll it out break out the lawn chairs drink some fruit punch and wait on a load. Maybe even break out one of those lil grills and cook a couple of burgers or a...

People are talking alot about tricking out Sprinters well here is what i've seen. Today at the college the red cross was here with a sprinter that had a full blown lift gate on it. Not like the one at the VA for putting the wheel chair guys in there but a real lift gate. Yesterday I picked up a...

I saw an advertisment on the tv yesterday about dodge now having a lifetime powertrain warranty. I wonder if this will cross over to the Sprinter as well? That would be great for you guys who own them.

I heard a story on the news a few days ago about tyson's chicken was gonna start taking chicken fat and using it in biofuel for their fleet some kind of way. i was curious if anyone else had heard anything about this. i'm sure there would need to be heaters put in the fuel tanks to keep it from...

Yesterday I was riding with my wife in our car and I saw a Sprinter with a liftgate on the back. It set up higher in the back than it did in the front. Like maybe it had a 3 inch lift on the back axle. It looked almost like it came straight out then down. It was slid under the back bumper.

I am thinking of making a dock plate for drivers to use when they swap out loads. My question is would any of you use a portable dock plate that could fold into a more compact size. I'm thinking of making a product such as this mainly as something to do while I can't drive. I'm just curious if...
