    Cargo Van Commercial Insurance

    There's something about 60 days to finalize something. Insurance? I would have read more carefully but, not sure I want authority yet Edit: was it a carrier post to head off competition and keep their fleet thru the January blahs? :bag:

    I've done it once. And, been given a seal in my hand while they shrugged their shoulders Lately they seem to ask, and pay, for it not to travel thru states depending on the load. No idea why Oh yeah, what im doing...sitting on my thumbs

    Cargo Van Commercial Insurance

    I've got to do some number crunching myself. I'm not making fun of the OP, looking at expanding horizons myself. But I've been doing this 12 years. Load boards are less useful than being seen by brokers for direct calls. Maybe this is the "shipping wars" effect? If insurance is too expensive...

    Should we put a sticky post in the noobs forum, or keep letting people find out for themselves? :pokepoke:

    looking to move companies need CDL though but can haul 26k gross

    Up front, didn't know they went to that. Looks like you're stuck with finding a better job and banking some cash, unless you can find some sort of grant to get your az Much cheaper and easier to get your DZ and keep driving those trucks for now. Used to be a $400 written test only (Ontario)...

    looking to move companies need CDL though but can haul 26k gross

    In that case, they can't. Unfortunately you have to finish the citizenship end first, from here. There's no shortage of companies that will take you on as a driver here, if you have a clean driving record, but sponsoring an AZ will lock you here for a couple years to "pay it back" so to...

    looking to move companies need CDL though but can haul 26k gross

    The way they need drivers, you'd think that they would take you on at a company...but can they? (Immigration) I have no idea if they need drivers ENOUGH that they would help with the work visa, but it doesn't cost much to call the major US carriers and try. You might have to step up to a...

    Cargo Van next step

    No, splitting that meagre amount between two drivers would end your business faster. I'd love a driver. Can't afford it (I respectfully disagree with danthewolf00)

    I want a Job, but Need Help/Advice

    Mostly us vanners can't wrap our heads around the costs involved of the larger trucks. Somebody else's fine, but it scares the crap outta me to own

    Deleting the rate per mile I posted. (Noobs, too many vans, bad money :D) P.s. buy a straight truck

    I need a sprinter mechanic in the Kansas area. No dealerships. All recommendations appreciated.

    Ah ok. I don't live in Death Valley either and mentally converted 10w60 to 15w40 rotella (1 million trouble free miles in my 7.3) as for 5 k oil changes, with dep/dpf and short trips of an average driver, he might be on to something. Most don't hop on the highway for hundreds of miles like we...

    Yes, and yes Besides which, your tune retains all of the programmability of the factory tune. With certain emissions entries edited out Colorado and California have mobile emmissions testing, California being more sinister with their units being parked alongside the silly "fruit inspections"...

    Honestly, with real world experience - if you reinstall the engine and plug everything in correctly, it will work. The factory way of doing things would be to relearn those components which changed. If they are swapping everything from the old engine, nothing will change to the computer. The...
