    Just started, questions about van life (Ram Promaster 2500)

    I was referring to the contract between the fleet owner and the carrier. The question was directed towards other operators. LDB's comment about it being a dangerous situation is real. We're all worried about profit margins, so here's a few more thoughts ... Your van should be insulated, heated...

    It gotta suck when Bama comes to town .... Not a single team looks like them could be them, not one.

    So far so good .... Michigan runs the table, I think they're in the playoff. If that game against Ohio St decides which team gets into the playoff, it'll be a dandy ..

    Just started, questions about van life (Ram Promaster 2500)

    Have you ever slept in a van during winter? One that's not insulated? Idling isn't going to cut it. Please stick to things you know. Like circumnavigating every rule in the book. You'd put one of your driver's in this situation, wouldn't you?

    Ok, so the whole blanket thing is not going to work very much longer. Temps are going to start dropping quickly. Get in tune to watching temperatures closely; for a wide variety of reasons. Can you survive in a bare bones van? Sure, with the proper gear you can ... but it's not very...

    Cargo Van I have no idea how I got here but this is neat.

    I wasn't asking for a location update but that's fine we'll just move along ... Can you pass a drug test?

    Should I stay or Should I go?

    I agree with the previous posts. Sometimes ya gotta be patient. Each city is a learning experience and one rule doesn't apply. Washington and Oregon are like the abyss, ELP isn't. There's enough freight coming out of ELP that you should get something .... or maybe not. Good luck ..

    End of the Maple Leaf...

    Gets really murky when the government makes something legal and available for public consumption. Are there any tests for alcohol use? I'm not talking about being impaired while driving, that's obviously clear cut. Anyone how the Canucks are handling this?

    Everything I need to start my expediting business?

    I've mentioned this before .... I would save up $20K cash and buy a good used van. This business is hard enough without a loan payment. Especially if you aren't under the gun and have time to shop.

    It's only a matter of time before it's nationally legalized in the US. Weed .... Casinos .... Sports betting .... The government wants in on all this illicit behavior .... tax dollars rule.

    Public shaming.... view from a liberal

    So here's a few thoughts .... Are there people trying to rewrite history in this country? Yeah, there are. I think those folks are on the fringe. So, I'm going to attempt to explain where I think most people are with this issue. The pictures that OVM posted are not a good direct comparison to...

    Yeah, I got a couple of thoughts on this. I'm just waiting for the Oracle of Ontario to reply ... lol. I want to make sure I understand his post.

    Public shaming.... view from a liberal

    I'm not sure if I'm getting this clear, so a bit of clarification would help .... How are "blacks trying to erase their bad history" .....? Are you referring to the confederate flag comment?
