using one of the other route's van. be for you ask the next question. that route doesnt have a carrier, so its being split up for deliveries (for now). we have atleast 2 extra vehicles at our office which the newbies run around with.

the thing is, my van is in pretty decent shape for a 2016. other than 2nd motor installed. and a couple of scrapes and a side step twisted into a pretzel from morons using it. the other pro master vans looks like it came out of a war zone.
A Promaster? you've got a nice Van compared to what I thought you were talking about.

I thought it was one of these...

Nothing tempting on CL for some time. I should be stable for a while.
Very well... Just gotta keep the CL empty then... lol

The "nice Van" probably now has VS label on the side of it and is monitoring this forum from in front of my house as we speak. 😱

Happy Friday Jeep peeps.

Apologies for an upcoming minor venting of frustrations, but I didn't get any sleep last night and am feeling a little grumpy and confused.

At essentially every one of my daughter's home volleyball games, I've been short changed at the concession stand. Students from the school's other sports teams work it, with an adult supervising. If the cost is, say, $4.50, and I give them $10.00, the kids inevitably stand over the money box and you can almost see the gears turning in their heads trying to do the math, and then they hand me $4.50 back and say thank you. If the bill is $6.50, I get back $2.50. My wife was buying $2.50 worth of stuff and gave the kid $20.50. The kid hands her the $0.50 back saying he would just end up giving it back to her with her change. She told him, no you would give me an even $18.00 back. The money goes to the athletic program, so I have not, as yet, said anything. But it saddens me that the students at what is really a very good school, can't do simple money transactions correctly.

Then Tuesday this week it got worse. The kid taking my money had a calculator, and used it. My change was still $1.00 short. And then last night, at an away game, their concession stand had all adult workers. I thought I was actually going to get correct change back...nope. $1.00 short, just like always.

Is there some kind of new math out there, or did we switch to something other than base 10?? WTH is going on?
at least you got change back. but your right todays simple math is like law of physic equation. the grocery store are the worst. i've seen the cashier finger count behind the back.

less electronic crap for it to take a dump and the simpler the better to work on.
True to an extent. Easier to DIY with the work but some parts are gonna be hard to find, depending on how old and what it is. If its got a Chevy 350 you bet they're still making parts. A Chrysler 340? might be harder to find.
