Scumbags have left, individually...keeping their bonuses...new office took the orphaned drivers over. But, they are a trucking company...these are nice Scumbags :p

You need to separate large companies that pay drivers a flat fee per mile regardless of what they earn, from large companies that do a proper split. This is accomplished by chatting with a LOT of drivers I haven't seen small companies in the van world that have proper access to good freight...

Suits may freak over bonuses, but that's far from changing their business model. (Edit: my current carrier evolved out of a lawsuit. They simply closed the office down, opened under another name, and paid nothing. Dragged on 10+ years...)

No ad says "2014 Feightliner Sprinter" it's a chinese clone :D Something is up. There is a 0.5% chance they're too rich to care...id be looking if import wasn't such a hassle

They need to go home or stop running. Not for a day, for a month. Bring the country to its knees, and do enough damage to make a memorable impression. Being paid by the mile is ridiculous. Of course the only way to make money is to drive unsafely and speed in horrible conditions. Truckers...

If that's the case - I need a 26' 5 ton deregulated to 9920 lbs :D Edit: I might give him a call...owning thru an American corp would give me US license plates and some possible new state to state opportunity :p Don't ask, don't tell...

OK. They were doin it wrong Passed with flying colors. The machine was trying to tell the last two places they were freaking morons and to go home, certifications revoked SMOKE TEST not PLUG IN. Course they would have had to read the message on the screen in front of their face...

Unfortunately in Canada 4500 kg = 9920 lbs = regulated. I like his vans tho

I keep stopping on the srw cubes and eyeing that width. At least once a month I get a call to rescue a light straight sized load...paid accordingly... Adjusted my attitude rereading the stephensservice.com and "the fatal flaw of Mercedes-Benz sprinters" interweb sites. Then I came upon...

Answer: gas if it comes with highest GVWR Oil change cost: free + oil and filter (not seeing a dealership again) (Edit: anyone that knows me will understand I go thru this everytime something frustrating happens with my Sprinter, I'll start vomiting when I think of the payments) Have to get...

Situation: our emissions testing gets scrapped in April, mine's expired now. Problem: when connected to the machine, my Sprinter is not allowed to complete the test. In fact, the second location I tried, the machine called "home" for a video conference. I've heard some sprinters have been...

One that doesn't come out to $66,000 plus tax like the one on my build site

I'm sure there's absolutely nothing to worry about from a generation that has crying rooms at university. Btw. Ouch. I can't move Looking at the 2019 Sprinter with extended warranty

I'm officially old I've noticed there's a bunch of kids giving the news for awhile now. That's fine, i don't care much about the news. But this morning they were talking about how millennials were offended by Seinfeld calling it racist and sexist. Seinfeld. I mean, I found the show a little...

OK, I'm not sissy yet. No problems working outside in 17 F weather. Snow stopped, sprinter started :D Don't put off those transmission fluid changes. Yes mine was synthetic, but it was a dark thick sludgy mess. New control board and fluid/filter. Maybe, I'll work next...

Rear service done, had a sticky caliper. Remembered a Sprinter source thread about loose u bolts; indeed mine were torqued but loose. Sledgehammer, torch, penetrating oil and a few hours later, the rattle is gone! Which wasted my time on the real problem; getting stuck in gear. Now racing the...

I swore in 2009, never again a van loan. Course that means right now I'm bundled up in 3 jackets taking a transmission apart in the snow. Good times

There ya go. That and a google app for location makes a load board ;)

Somebody called me?

Btw it's January
