Good stuff brother. A lot of people come to KZbin to learn. I bet you will prevent a few guys from wasting some time and money.

[@Eagle-Xpress]

Every day I turn drivers away because they make the mistake of buying a short van thinking wheel base is the same as cargo space length.

[@nai8506]

Good stuff learned today .. thanks for info

[@markkiyabu2462]

Thank you for your Experience & Knowledge about Vans❤❤❤

[@granceadan]

Thank you for your posted content! I live in the NE, considering taking longer trips. Question: what is, in your opinion, the chance to get busted driving a deleted diesel engine? Also, is it worth doing the delete (EGR/DPF/DEF) to begin with? Thanks! D.

[@Eagle-Xpress]

Nobody gets anyone busted or checks anything. Not sure why people are even worried about it. Folks tune and delete vehicles all the time especially with pick up trucks and we don't get in any trouble out here. Maybe it's only a Nebraska thing if you know of someone who got in trouble.

[@rodypop4765]

❤🎉❤ WOW. This is good advice. I want to buy a very new one and work with you guys.

[@Eagle-Xpress]

New costs too much. Buy a used one with under 130k miles and ull save about half vs new. It only takes a good driver a year to put on 130 to 160k a year on a van and it will be worth about half after that. So I recommend saving money vs wasting it.

[@rodypop4765]

You right, thank you. So I try to find something used under 50k. I know you guys don't take old van and over 100k mile at Eagle Express.

[@OTW-DJAY]

RWD or FWD? We get a lot of different perspectives on this. What would you say? Thank you for your insights! They truly help!

[@Eagle-Xpress]

Front wheel drive is only made by the ram promaster. Sprinter and transit are rwd. I have no problem driving a rwd even out west in our winter weather conditions.

[@emmanuelgianni5112]

Hey brother! Great job out there, congratulations for sure. And I need to ask you, if I will have my van , can I work with you? I like your seriousness. Thank you

[@Eagle-Xpress]

Sure. Email address is in the description of every video.

[@DarrenRivey]

Sprinter Extended has a big cargo advantage when compared to the Promaster 3500 Extended (156” cargo).

[@Eagle-Xpress]

Yes it does... Not just that but also the reliability as well and diesel engine vs gas.. Lasts longer and has the better fuel economy.

[@seok07024]

Nice van. Is yours AWD?

[@Eagle-Xpress]

Nope, RWD

[@step_inside]

My thought is if people are making those kinds of mistakes maybe they shouldn't be looking to be an expeditor to begin with

[@Eagle-Xpress]

Agree... But figured if I'm able to help even 1 person from making a mistake it's all worthwhile. Some people are learners and bounce back and some are just unfixable.

[@jamesosborne8459]

What about the engine. Diesel or gas. 4 or 6 cylinder. Could you please expand on that. Thank you.

[@Eagle-Xpress]

Diesel always. More power and it's more economical. And if I could I would get the 4 cylinder diesel sprinter. It's even more economical.... Like 27 mpg

[@chiefcarterphillipines]

Great channel. I'm retired military, cdla 20 yrs. Is their a way to rent a van and test van expediating to see if I like it. I'm interested in working to 3 to 6 months a year. Thanks

[@Eagle-Xpress]

We don't work with rental vehicles. Not sure about other companies though.

[@ruby4575]

What is the link to your company, I’m in the process to start my business as driver. I’m now in the search for a van.

[@Eagle-Xpress]

Email address is in the description of every video I put out.

[@Chad-wk2pm]

[@Eagle-Xpress]

[@Chad-wk2pm]

​Great response

[@robba8997]

Hi Andre what year is your van

[@Eagle-Xpress]

2015

[@BrianFisher-k3p]

So your company will not work with standard roof

[@Eagle-Xpress]

No... High roof extended vans only.

[@dallatx8362]

My van is high roop extended 2015 miles 240 is good?

[@Eagle-Xpress]

240k miles to start out with is high. Unless you owned it from 100k miles ago and did all the needed maintenance up to this point. With 240k miles things will start to slowly one by one break down on you.
