What kind of vehicle? If we are talking about a straight truck, the only noise inside the truck that needs to be functioning is the low air alarm. If that works you should be good. Sent from my moto g(7) using Tapatalk

The 7 speed is a sweet transmission. A few years ago I bought a family hauler Sprinter with the 2.1 liter 4 cylinder and the 7 speed transmission. I believe this is the best combination Mercedes put in a Sprinter. Nowadays they also put this transmission behind a 6 cylinder. However, replacing...

Walmart, Publix, Kroger, Aldi, Lidl, Food Basics in Canada, and I'm sure there are a couple more that I missed. Sent from my moto g(7) using Tapatalk

They pay your tolls.

Bruno, Sorry, I can't help. Unfortunately, greasytshirt and Hino123, the two hino experts are no longer here.

What do you consider cheap? Sent from my moto g(7) using Tapatalk

Jeffrey, The reasons you mention (no regulation, relatively cheap to buy a van, no special license, etc.) are why everybody and their brother got a van and started expediting. They watch a few YouTube videos and think they can make a fortune driving a van. In reality, freight for vans is...

Vans or straight/tractors? If straight/tractors, the best I know is nastc. You pay an annual membership of $250 i believe and you have a network of truck stops that you get a significant discount. Some places even 50 cents a gallon, some less. Ta/Petro are included along with a bunch of smaller...

In April there was another one that closed down. Falcon Transport out of Youngstown OH. About 700 trucks if I remember correctly. Sent from my moto g(7) using Tapatalk

Isn't 3100 lbs a bit too much for the Sprinter? Sent from my moto g(7) using Tapatalk

The best would be to get rid of the reset completely. That would be the fairest solution. No need for exceptions then, and no room for errors. A couple of weeks ago I was number 1 and there was another truck in the area. I got an offer to California and I refused it since my truck is not legal...

Happy Birthday Sir. Maybe as a birthday gift they will fix your van for good. Hope at least. Sent from my moto g(7) using Tapatalk

I've been expediting in my m2 for almost 4 years now. Nothing really to complain about. I wouldn't hesitate to buy another if the price was right. That being said, I test drove a Cascadia and it is a lot smoother than the m2. I don't know if it is because of the age (my m2 is a 2004 and the...

Greg is right. As an owner operator you don't need 250k for a truck, nor do you need a team. However, you need to know what you are doing. I didn't want to drive for someone when I got into the straight truck so my strategy was to buy a good truck cheap for cash and have a go at it. If it...

Well done. It's amazing what goes behind the scenes in something like this. I watched a documentary about this same thing when president Bush showed up in Iraq. Both VC-25 were in the air making their way towards Iraq just in case there would be an issue with the one the president was on, the...

I'm curious, what gets used from raccoons and foxes? Or just getting rid of some pests? Sent from my moto g(7) using Tapatalk

Sometimes we do, sometime we don't. It seems that there is no rhyme or reason when and how. This week I was at thirty some hours and refused a super cheap load and I lost my hours. Didn't expect it since it was super cheap. Last week I turned down a couple because I had to be home for an...

Darn Russians. Leave it to them to figure out how to expedite in a Yugo. No wonder van freight is dead. Sent from my moto g(7) using Tapatalk
