    They built a new warehouse outside the fence a few years ago. Back in my LTL days I delivered or attempted to deliver there 2 or 3 times a month. Because I had a beard I wasn't allowed past the guard shack. The freight would get refused and I would return the next day with a redelivery charge...

    Cargo Van Looks like a class action law suit against Ford.

    That may have been an isolated problem with the early 3.5L EcoBoost engines in the pickup trucks. Several members on the Transit forum are approaching 200,000 miles and no mention of carbon build-up on the valves.

    Apologies ain't going to cut it! I'm offended I didn't get a chance to see the video with the offensive word before the post got deleted.

    Cargo Van To Decal or not to Decal...

    Panther doesn't use the roof mounted QC dome anymore. The antenna is a small box that sits on the dash. The old domes make great toys for kids of all ages. I like playing Noah's Ark, the Lost In Space version. .

    The Newer Unreliable Cargo Vans

    3 Transits and nary a giubo replacement? 191,000 miles on original Hankooks, amazing. Or is that 191,000 miles divided by 3 Transits? Agreed!

    Big Truck 2007 387 Truck Build

    I know absolutely nothing about frame stretching but I'm curious as to why they didn't stagger the cuts on the frame rails so the joints were not directly across from each other. Do they bolt up a gusset plate on the inside of the frame at the weld or add a section of inner frame? I'm sure...

    Heddo Kitty. Researching RV and the stealth thing provides some good info but you need to do more research here. Living in a van is one thing, living in a van and making money is another.

    Cargo Van To Decal or not to Decal...

    I doubt Panther would put their door decals on a magnetic sheet for you. Like Worn Out stated, a hair dryer and a little Goo B Gone is all it takes. Putting a coat of wax on prior to applying the decals should make removal easier. When the time comes to remove the decals I know an E.O...

    Our Life on the Road Expediting Service Failure

    I would consider a DEF/Regen failure to be covered under the force majeure clause. Government regulators enacted these regulations. In this country the government is God and the force majeure clause exempts carriers from acts of God. I run coolant diluted 50% with Holy Water. If I had a...

    Our Life on the Road Expediting Service Failure

    I consider not meeting a delivery time due to a mechanical breakdown to be a service failure as well as any incident that doesn't invoke the force majeure clause. I don't play Panther's Precious Metal Game. I don't care how a service failure affects my Precious Metal status. But I do take...
