Yes, but it's not much, especially since we only get 40% of what is paid to the truck, so we have made less than $200 this week so far. I can't wait to get out of this state and cross it off of our list of states we will deliver to. What good is a 2,000 mile run out here when you end up sitting the whole next week? CA has become as bad as going to UT. It sucks.

Moot I thought you drove a GM product, not a Sprinter. Having to wait 2 days to get a coolant hose for a chevy van is rediculous. Now if you drove a big truck they would have it in stock. See, one more reason to get rid of the van.
