It pays to have a BIG van | Sprinter van business revealed

[@villagehiddeninthesand2716]

Hey brotha Just found your channel and subbed! I started my LLC last month for cargo van/sprinter van hauling.. and I’m very excited and just reading and watching to soak up as much knowledge as possible before I hit the road, do you have a minute to answer just 2 questions, where is the best place to purchase/finance a van?, and where can I start finding loads or better yet a Dispatcher/broker?, Thank yoy so much in advance and stay safe

[@Eagle-Xpress]

You need to get with a company that dies what we do and lease onto a good carrier or broker. Buying a van is just like buying a car. Either a dealership or Facebook marketplace if u have cash in hand to buy for cash.

Wanted to ask what kind of van and the specs ? Appreciate the input and keep up with your videos 👍

[@Eagle-Xpress]

Mines a 2015 sprinter 170 extended. 16ft of cargo space length.

im a trucker so i have alot of expirience in the guessing game LOLOLOL

[@indiothehauler7418]

Great video just subscribed when doing Otr loads do you have a sleep setup?

[@Eagle-Xpress]

Yes. There's videos on the channel about the sleeper too.

[@harryknutts8428]

i have 50k i might buy a sprinter next spring , i wont buy until i can pay cash

[@terryb5000]

Can you show me how you have your bed set up in your van and your heating system, and how do you stay cool in the summer time

[@Eagle-Xpress]

It's all already on this channel. You need to go in the Playlist and find those videos.

[@KAMRANMOGHARABI-xx8gv]

HELLO I SAW A SPRINTER 2024 MERCEDEZ 4 AWD , 4500 170 IS THAT THE BIGGEST WIDEST THEY HAVE FOR 88000$ .AND THE BEST.

[@Eagle-Xpress]

Now sure why anyone would need a 4500 and AWD. Going to be a lot less economical and we're only dealing with winter 3 months out of the year and not even in every state. I would not recommend buying an AWD. And would never spend 88k on a sprinter. I a year you'll put 120k + miles on it and it will be worth half of what you paid for it. I'd buy used with low mileage.

[@SeaOrcRonnie]

Do you need a cdl to drive one of those larger sprinters? Just stumbled across your channel and I’m very intrigued. Thanks!

[@Eagle-Xpress]

No, cdl is not needed.

[@poseidon5003]

You can legally drive a large box truck with your regular drivers license. Look at large moving trucks like U Haul and such.

[@domirinano]

U put foam around, instead of insulation???? Dont forget have it in N to avoid forklift push u and mess transmisition clic....

[@Eagle-Xpress]

👍 My e brake works good for that. Only when I'm loading 3k + then I put it in neutral when pallets are being slid inside. Otherwise when it's wood on metal sliding on the e tracks in the van like butter. There's no pushing when u have the right set up.

[@kylemathena1491]

Good work 😊

[@MrJenningsman]

whats the length of your sprinter ? and thanks for sharing ,good info

[@Eagle-Xpress]

192" long cargo space length.

[@MrJenningsman]

thank you sir @@Eagle-Xpress

[@suffolkraider]

Being nosey. Is the rate for that job about normal for that work or do others pay more according to load or drops. (UK here)

[@Eagle-Xpress]

All depends on the competition in the area and the load market at the time.

[@markmiranda-jl5hv]

Only $650 bucks? I am guessing its less than 30 miles right?

[@Eagle-Xpress]

Only? And no it's around 200 miles there and 200 miles back home. Surer rate for those miles.

[@LakersDieHard_323]

Just stumbled across your looking to start up un curios how do you find loads I’ve been having a hard time

[@Eagle-Xpress]

We use special expediting load boards. After you're in the business for a long time then brokers call or email offering freight as well without even posting freight on the load boards.

[@BrandyNunes-ul8nr]

what city is this at at the 8:53 mark?

[@mrcotter2531]

Did u ever have to remove the front passenger seat for a load to fit?

[@Eagle-Xpress]

no, 192" long cargo space has been enough so far.

[@aquianstanley3909]

​@@Eagle-Xpress Wow thats the size of my 16FT BT

[@Bearskimethod]

Hello Broski How far apart did you instal your e-track on the floor of your van.. ? Thanks in advance 👍🏻

[@Eagle-Xpress]

U can move 10 inches or so from the wheel wells and that will work.

[@Bearskimethod]

@@Eagle-Xpress 10-4 Thanks broski 💪🏻

[@DaDE_305]

How do you find a dispatch?

[@Eagle-Xpress]

You just need to lease on with a carrier like us or a broker to dispatch you.

[@DaDE_305]

@@Eagle-Xpress how do I do that ? I’m here in Florida and with the company allowed me to rent because if so, I can get a rental no problem.

[@DaDE_305]

I Already have my llc

[@Eagle-Xpress]

We don't work with rental vans. Must be owned by the driver, and so do many other companies like ours.

I am of Moroccan nationality, keenly interested in working in Canada, I am an expert in driving manual and automatic vans and I have several years of experience in goods transport and home delivery. how can I have a Canadian work contract? Have a great day.

[@Eagle-Xpress]

I know therrs expediting in Canada. But they're not as busy as united states. And don't know who loads there as we do not go into Canada.

I guess you don't know the business. When you have a smaller van you're limiting your self.
