It certainly does, it is the transmission again. This is the 3rd transmission in 4 years and it is just another example of making sure you have plenty of money saved before getting into the transportation industry, no matter what size vehicle you are in. This time a seal or line blew out and dumped all the fluid which didn't cause a complete meltdown but did enough damage so that it is no longer safe to drive.

Sitting back home in CO waiting to hire a guy to drive the sprinter... just did 77500 miles in the last 13 months and I'm no longer staying in the driving game, the money is not enough in a sprinter. I'm going to sit back at home like most EO members.. I'd a imagine some solo straights and husband and wife teams are doing good.

I really don't understand this thinking. You say not enough money to drive your own van, but you think you can pay someone else to drive it, keep it maintained and make money. Must not be planning on paying much.

I was thinking the same thing...if he couldn't make enough money... how in the world will some poor slug making 40 or 60% be able to do it?.....

There are to many variables in his post ..just to blame it on the carrier. .....Location, load acceptance, carrier , time spent out on road, weight cap. , size of sprinter , & more..
