OK wow I had not idea....maybe it's good I just have older trucks for now. Thanks

If it doesn't count down what would happen if you just save the expense and not run the fluid at all? ( my trucks are not new enough to have to run the DEF). Just a thought Andrew

HI All I bought an older (1994) GMC Topkick that had a bent up bumper and a little passenger side fender damage as a result of the previous owner hitting a deer (got lucky mainly bumper damage BUT I'm sure it could have been much worse) I had gone to several big truck junkyards searching for a...

I have my own authority but it was because my carrier (well company that holds the contract I will help service) wanted me to as part of their requirements for being able to do the contract.... Being that they had nearly a 30 page contract and info pkg on me and made me carry every insurance...

Are you planning on driving for a company or are you planning on getting your own truck? If you are planning on owning your own truck, probably easiest to just buy a CDL truck and use it for your test (kill 2 birds with 1 stone) I'd park it near the testing place the night before so you don't...

I know most vans don't have it BUT could a 3 person bench seat be easily installed up from and then some "filler" be used for the foot wells so that can somewhat approximate a bed? Has anybody tried that? its space not often used for sleeping and it would always be there.

SOMEONE (actually several people) are making money doing this..... The company shipping the product makes money. The broker (if involved) makes money. The company with the contract from the broker is making money. Unfortunately, by the time it filters down to the driver level ...we don't...

HI, Thanks for the great replies thus far... As far as truck expenses, I know by far bigger trucks cost a lot of $$ for maintenance and repairs when compared to my little Jetta....Heck 1 truck tire runs about the same as 4 car tires, 1 car oil change is 4 quarts VS truck change of 5 gallons...

HI All, I've done lots of car / mini van courier and delivery work but I am new to operating and attempting to do delivery work out of a 26' Under CDL box truck with lift gate. I bought a box truck for an appliance delivery gig that seems to pay pretty well ($450 / Day for 12 stops average...

Hi All, I recently bought a 1994 GMC Top Kick with a Cat 3116 Diesel and Auto Tranny. The truck has about 485K miles (mostly highway per owner) and seems to be in pretty good shape. The owner lost a hauling contract and kept the truck for 3 years after the loss of the contract in the hopes...

I have family living in Detroit (just a hop skip and a jump from the border) and looking at Canadian vehicles they are pretty much our vehicles with the exception of the gauges all being in metric. Some people used to buy cars over there when the dollar was strong and simply drive then over...

HI All, I am looking at buying a 1993 International 4900 box truck. I like older mechanical trucks in good shape.... The truck is in great condition but from the reading here it has made me a little paranoid because it has the spicer 6+1 tranny which a lot of people say is not a good trans...

HI, I know not enviro friendly BUT old school rust proofing was to spray the undercarriage with either diesel or used motor oil.... They repel water and rust does not form....do a couple times during the winter and no rust all... No need to wash undercarriage at a car wash doing the above...

Hi all I may be getting a contract to deliver appliances and the contract requires a 26 foot box truck with liftgate Because I don't have a lot of money and not a lot of good credit I'm looking for a lower-cost truck to get me started at least Because my helper will be driving the truck...
