    Solar Eclipse - What are you doing?

    I was dead center in the path of totality at a cemetery in Elmira, Missouri. It rained prior to the beginning of the eclipse. During the first part of the eclipse phase we were getting teased. Mostly cloudy with short peeks at the sun. Just prior to the total eclipse there was an opening in...

    TRANSIT WOES

    So your total maintenance cost per mile is .05 CPM, correct? If so that is certainly a decent figure. My last Chevy maintenance cost was .033/mile for 820,000 miles. At 140,000 miles my 2015 Transit is running a hair over .02/mile but certain to climb.

    Cargo Van Time for a high top

    Not yet, but I'm sure some fine below zero winter day, with the sun shining and melting snow being blown across the roadway by a 40 mph wind I'll find out.

    How about dock/loading work at UPS or Amazon until you turn 21? Any employment in the transportation industry should look good on a résumé.

    Cargo Van Time for a high top

    I would have preferred a mid-roof but the 2015 models didn't come with the extended length option. I wanted the extra 28" of floor space.

    Extreme Lower Back Pain

    This is just one example of carrier induced extreme lower back pain. You can try and zoom in on a portion of the following. You can try some sort of magic clarification. You could even use PhotoShop voodoo but it will still be the illegible POS instruction sheet for Panther's phone app which...

    Hiring Age

    Dallas is a large city and Texas is a huge state. Why not hire on with a local courier delivery service and gain some driving experience until you are 21 years old. Yeah I know at your age one year is a long time but trust me, the older you get, the shorter a year is. I've got E-track older...

    Full electric A/C units for trucks

    I believe the popularity of these units would be in direct relation to the information and specifications about these units supplied without a purchase. But that's just me.

    Cargo Van Starting Next Week with Panther and I've Got Questions

    Wolfhouse, you mentioned: "If I could make $2500-3000/month, I would be ok with that." You could gross that amount but probably closer to $2500. If you have money in the bank or no large fixed expenses, like a mortgage or car payments, then this might be a good chance to try out van...
