Fred's next great idea is to take your average idiot off the street, plop them in a truck, pay them peanuts, and then depend on defective computer technology to allow them to be efficient delivery drivers. Oh, sorry...he's already doing that.
You really do hate being Fred's bitch, don't you?Ahh you're scaring me don't you think if he could he would have already

We all know this is coming, in some form or another. PT'ers are being hired left and right. FO, P1,STD and clock out.

Exactly, they also don't operate in interstate commerce. I think when one of their drivers finally educates themselves on these rules and then sues for for unpaid ot, these contractors will be singing a different tune.

Or maybe you should learn the laws and realize there are plenty of loopholes. Since you're obviously talking out of your ass.
Googled it. A 3500 high roof extended wide body Sprinter has a Gross Vehicle Weight Rating of either 9900 lbs or 11030 lbs, depending I suppose on how it's equipped. Remember that the GVWR is the weight of the vehicle plus the maximum payload, which includes the driver. The 2500 is less but if I remember right was near 8000 lbs, not sure.

I agree, but in this comparison we take the bacon. Another thing I believe is the degradation of the middle class is why the country isn't recovering as quickly. Corporate greed is right. I like your avatar.

All the 3500 say 9990 which less than 10001 threshold buddy. I see mostly 1500 and 2500 on the road anyway.

Talking out of your ass is exclusively reserved for FedEx management. Cease and desist, or Legal will have your ass in a sling, and then you won't be able to talk out of yours like you are right now.
A loophole like at any given time I may have to take a P1200 out to my driver in a 2500 so he can finish the day?
But each of my drivers is licensed to and could at any time be required to operate a vehicle over 16001 pounds in the state of Illinois.
A 3500 with duals is over 10000 pounds.
