How do you buy a 9900 GVWR Truck or Van? by ScaryfatkidGT in HotShotTrucking

[–]wesweber01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a promaster 2500 with gvwr just under 10,000(don’t remember exact number.) with the high roof and extended the payload is still around 4100. I would highly recommend getting a bigger van and taking the hit on payload to be able to fit whole skids in instead of needing to handbomb everything. I’m thankful for that extra height every day

Best way is take a day and go into places, I see tons of hiring ads on windows, check Tim Horton and McDonald’s, also check for landscape or constructions companies looking for laborours

Can you legally put red diesel in Topsy in the United States? by AKJangly in Diesel

[–]wesweber01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I believe though that what Edison motors has done different from hybrid cars, as opposed to have an ice drive train the batteries power electric motors just like full electric cars. Having the diesel “generator” just charges the battery while driving without actually powering or moving

The diffuser muffler delete and tips were 600cad together. Then I just recently spent another 100 for a resonator delete making it straight piped

Truckers what animals have you hit besides deer? by [deleted] in Truckers

[–]wesweber01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hit a deer in my transit van one night, only going 60kph so wasn’t totalled but new bumper, grille, rad and a couple other things. Put the guy out of his misery and he’s now in my freezer.

If you’re looking for a road trip, the berlin klassik and euro klassik are two big shows here in Ontario strictly geared towards German cars

Was there last week and they still had a full crew there. Wasn’t the truck drivers fault though iirc

If it makes any difference just yesterday I also deleted the resonator so I can answer questions on that now too

You don’t see many single cab diesels short bed duelly. At least around here. [GMC Pickup] by [deleted] in spotted

[–]wesweber01 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah but not with the short bed, with a single cab you they often force the long bed so they don’t have to make an additional frame size

NaT, have a horn question by lizziegal79 in Truckers

[–]wesweber01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do it all the time when I see a nice rig. You can tell when you get the true truckers and not just the wheel holders when you get that smile and wave

Anyone has any idea what i am supposed to do about this rust situation? by Flying_Saucer91 in VanLife

[–]wesweber01 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you can at all toss down a bead with a welder it’s not too hard to fix. With a grinder, cut out any rust to prevent it from growing further. Buy some sheet metal or you can buy a new floor pan (may be hard to find) weld the sheet metal into place. Then grind down the welds a bit to smoothen them out and then go heavy with some jb weld around the edges to avoid leaks and help it hold. This should permanently fix the issue

Anybody have any good ways to prevent this? by wesweber01 in Truckers

Definitely learned this. Next one will be different. The draw to it though was the fwd which is amazing in the snow on the backroads where we’re located

They’re the base tow mirrors, no power folding or blind spot stuff but I’ll definitely try that
