Larry, Have you considered using a heavy duty Battery Isolator? This would allow you to utilize the power of a battery ('s) without draining your cranking battery. When your engine is running the isolator would allow the "source" battery to be re-charged. >My truck has 3 12v batteries in...

Larry, Here is another option to the sleeping bag - http://www.expeditersonline.com/images/bunkwarmer.gif Here is the shameless sales promotion..... Enjoy a comfortable night's sleep anywhere you stop with a 12-volt bed/bunk warmer. The warming pad goes on the mattress underneath you (heat...

RE: Other Options...... Sunset, It looks like that is all the operator has to pay (Fuel & Tolls), the rest is covered by them via these service accounts: Freightliner Speedco Blue Beacon and COMDATA account for disbursing funds This program is for those who can't get financing...

Welcome to EO! We're glad to hear that you've enjoyed the site. I don't know of a single Expedited Carrier that is based in NY. There are a few small "regional" companies - but no carriers that are national. I'm sure Tri-State Expedited or Panther II have units based in that area. Forum...

Clacker, Yes, I had the opportunity to run a Sprinter from Ft Wayne, IN to Detroit. It reminded me of my VW Jetta, tight steering, firm seat and hugged the road when running down the Interstate. I really enjoyed it and thought that it was custom built for expediting - inside and out. It did...

RE: It's over man... ILoveChrome, Welcome to the Forum! Can you see the parent company - FDX turning away from a $300+ million subsidiary? A business that has $0 in debt? Or leaving this market because of increased competition? I can't think of a single time in FDX's corporate history...

Welcome to the Forum! Your comment: "Gross revenues to van: $58,000. Total miles, about 75000" I think you may want to investigate those numbers a little bit more. To earn $58K in a van and operate that van with a courier - your annual mileage would be more like around 150,000 miles. Best...

Hi Vejhn, It is a common standard for the operators to receive 60%, while the owners get the remainder 40%. On this type of plan the operators pay the tolls. Hope this helps. Lawrence Expediters Online.com

Marmon, It sounds like a good opportunity! Please keep us informed as to how it works out! Lawrence Expediters Online.Com

Mike, Does the GPS still work when you are downtown...Manhatten? Thanks, Lawrence Expediters Online.Com

Thanks for your post! In order to get a fair and honest reponse from the Forum, you need to supply more information. :7 Such as...Are you running a team, teaming with owner, size of unit and where it is based. Who's paying for the tolls etc., etc. Thanks, Lawrence Expediters Online.Com

Hi Marmon, Let me guess...you like Marmon trucks ;-) I think .62 CPM is on the low side, but if you are home every night and it's ALL miles - it may a good deal. Most vans average anywhere from .50 to .70 CPM for all miles. Best of luck! Lawrence Expediters Online.Com

Hello Fred, I took a look at your AD # 2098. Your right, this truck is totally loaded and looks great! However, I did not see the asking price. Thanks, Lawrence Expediters Online.Com PS For those who have note seen your truck or ad: Read the Classified Ad...

RE: Other Options...... Hi Michael, No, they do have singles too. It may worth the time to submit an application....and see where it leads.:D Lawrence Expediters Online.Com

Wild Bill, My understanding is that Flying J is coming out with a "dream" Wireless Internet service for the first of this year. I thought we had just had a topic like this going last month.;-) Lawrence Expediters Online.Com
