Sucks. I'm always scared of what the other drivers will do to my Sprinter, if it gets written off I couldn't replace it...good job getting mostly out of the way

Huh? I started in 2006 and i'm coming up on 2 million miles...I'm down to 100,000 a year range and it feels like a vacation...get me a job with your carrier you must get 1.50 a mile lol Seems like all us vanners are checking out the straights while its a little slow!

She found me. So it goes

Had 1 local for the week. Caught up on my messages and I think I'm not the only one slow What's the rate right now, .60? Lots of bidding no wins...at least at a reasonable rate... Back to napping until the wife finds me, its spring cleaning season

Yessir, believe it or not. At least when used for expedite. And I think they achieve about 15 mpg at 60 on the hwy

In my defense, it was prescription...

You'll get an easy million miles out of one in an E350 I know a couple with them. Of course, you need to, because the fuel will cost enough to buy a couple more vans

Number crunching today, came across this note and thought I'd post it as a reminder to get proper sleep The mysterious white sprinter breaks free from the carrier's icy embrace The mysterious white sprinter slices through the night like a gleaming katana, dripping with the promise of a new day...

Been there many times

49,000 for the biggest Promaster diesel and 57,000 for the biggest Ford diesel (2017, canadian dollars). Why do I keep looking? Diesel is cheaper than gas, as long as I do the maintenance myself...getting it worked on by a stealership, gas seems to win out as long as driven for mileage...more...

I think the president elected makes a pretty strong statement on political correctness. I know I've got no use for it. And obviously neither do the majority if Americans.

I understand it will affect them, but excessive idling in a delivery truck is SOP...

Is someone bored? :D

Had enough of this week put myself OOS. Going to attempt to crunch numbers on diesel vs gas and decide what's best for next van...crazy people are paying over 7000 for low mileage T1N's I've only got 215,000 miles on my 2005

Welcome, sprinter hater :p love reading your Hino posts

It wasn't a picnic for me even though I had a few loads. Delays are running near 50% of my driving time...6 hours on Tuesday and 6 on Wed on a 10 and 12 hour drive, without deadhead.... even my local delayed me 45 min on dropoff...the rates start looking worse when it takes 72 hours to...

I took it as he was poking fun at the stereotype. Maybe he was serious? Us Canadians have a hard time with understanding the US attitudes sometimes

I was definitely in my glory the night it wouldn't start because I forgot to take it out of drive :p

Agreed. They use good cream, that's the only difference...in Canada anyway nobody else seems to, just the fake stuff Delivery changed to 4 skids (which apparently will fit with 2 stacked) more money an 2 hours more sleep:D

Got yelled at yesterday for not remembering what country I was in for customs papers, skipping coffee didn't work. Had to fix wiring 3 times in first 100 miles but the next 700 was trouble free. Delivered on time and booked a fat local to bring me within an hour of home. Is 5 alarms enough...
