Doesn't FedEx require hazmat anymore? Stay safe

This Sprinter discussion is very interesting. It is a rational debate about expediting vans that is using the Sprinter as the norm or benchmark against which other vans are judged. It is a "watershed" discussion where the main debate is not comparing Ford diesel vs Chevy 350 engines and the...

I wonder if people on this forum realize how many of their fellow expeditors have other sources of income. It would be an interesting survey to take. More than occasionally people express displeasure here on EO with the competition provided by expeditors with pensions etc. Did you not...

barbara 6410 Welcome to the forum. In my opinion it would not be possible to make the money you wish as a CV driver for another owner. However as an owner operator of a CV your $ 1000.00 per week might be possible for a seasoned pro but highly unlikely for a newbie. Many of the...

Go with your instinct and be not swayed with the uncertainties of those that are at a crossroad in life. You seem to have a lot going for you, husband and wife team, a game plan , and fire in the belly. With your cautious approach and little investment to lose, you are poised to make some...

Nice little van, looks like a comfortable ride with nice features. Four more feet and a diesel would get some serious looks from expeditors. Why can't Ford or Chevy raise their roof a little? If only.

I know this topic has been endlessly discussed over the years. However it's time for me to purchase a new van and I have a personal interest in renewing the debate. The Sprinter van clearly provides more creature comforts, more cargo room, and good mileage as compared to Ford or Chevy. I...

Gee, I wish I had enough money to start a " major player" sized expediting company. I would definitely require my owner operators to custom paint their trucks with gold leaf. All drivers would be required to wear approved apparel in the form of formal tuxedos. Additionally, orientation...
