    Cargo vans scaling in Michigan

    HS: Sorry about the edit comment. You were not edited, I hit the edit tab instead of reply tab by mistake. We've been told by our carrier that the sticker was for intra-state MI only and not needed otherwise for out state registrations. The same holds true for MO where MO registered vehicles...

    Great Service

    moot Inverting the mount is the plan. My dealer is 5 miles from the assembly plant, but the destination charge is $800. It's also that price no matter where the dealer; delivery cost averaging makes it easy on the GM CFO and expensive for me.

    Great Service

    Moot The old 2000 is getting tired at 550,000 miles. Still runs great but I felt it's time to renew. We ordered a loaded Chev 3500 w/ 6.0 liter gasser. Should have it in a month. My plan is to install the model 6000 behind the passenger seat; the model 900 behind the drivers seat and...

    FEXCC "E" Unit Pay Change

    RE: FEXCC Here's the policy as I know it. A few months ago, FedEx Custom Critical started paying all new tractor leasees by the mile rather than by percentage. Current tractor o/o's have the opportunity to stay with percentage or convert their leases to mileage. The pay per mile is for all...

    This may be worth the effort

    The following stolen from one of my favorite sites, snopes.com: A boycott of a couple of brands of gasoline won't result in lower overall prices. Prices at all the non-boycotted outlets would rise due to the temporarily limited supply and increased demand, making the original prices look cheap...

    Expediters Hall of Fame

    Expediting with trucks has been around since the first motor truck, built in 1896 by the German automotive pioneer Gottlieb Daimler, was put to commercial use transporting goods. Someone certainly hired the owner of Herr Daimler's new invention to take his property over the strasse to a...

    Do i really need room for three pallets?

    Zig: A Sprinter is a van. Van freight in the expedited freight community is two 4'x'x4' pallets weighing no more than 2500 pounds. A sprinter, unlike a Chevrolet, GMC or Ford van, can carry three skids, but generally no more weight than another van. If you are being courted by a recruiter...

    E-track size

    Vango: Some E-Track has vertical slots, running lengthwise, and some have horizontal slots. The vertical is narrower, and lighter with less slots, than the other. In a van, you'd be happier with the horizontal. I've only seen it in 10' lengths.

    Rene' and I just returned from the surgeon's office with a pathology report that shows the tissues surrounding the removed cancers are negative for cancer. The lymph nodes that were removed are also negative which indicates that her cancer had not spread through the lymph gland to other parts...
