I drive a 2010 Dodge Grand Caravan. I work for a non-emergency medical transport service.

The UPS guys that drop stuff off at our office are good dudes. I like them a lot more than the FedEx guys and the mailman

Hey! Another UPS bro! I still work the twilight shift though. Becoming just a cover driver takes so long at my SoCal hub that I'm thinking of moving.

Nice as faurk compared to Duke and fpl trucks. Also the rear tires have a inflate function it's pretty dope.

I'm a livery driver, I mostly pick up people from airports to hotels and viceversa. Pay is good for that I do, driving a comfy big car back and forth on the highway. People don't bother you 95% of the times, customers are mostly old men. Drove a 2013 Ford Fusion before I got promoted to the "premier" service division.

How many UPS drivers do you see though? In the US we have $35/hr. top rate. Tons of vacation. 100% coverage health plans that extends to family all for free. All while being protected by the most powerful union in the country.
The guys who drive tractor trailers are suicidal though, but they make well over six figures.

I'm a landscaper at a hotel.

I drive one of these.

I drove a diesel 5 cylinder Mercedes Sprinter I believe it was a 2014 model all through 2016 it was okay. Dear FBI tomorrow I will be at Lloyd Center I will beat my meat in the potted plants.

>>17544177
fuck, i want one so bad. How much did you end up paying for it?

>>17543350
How did you get your position? Did you have to do shit-tier UPS jobs before being a driver and getting that kind of compensation?

>>17544200
I'm not a driver yet, but the short answer is yes. Before you become a driver you gotta work the shit jobs.
The best way to get in is to apply for driver helper position during peak season. A few weeks before Thanksgiving they start posting help wanted ads. Get chummy with a few of the drivers and ask them about recommending you for a part time hire.
Then work in the hub for a few years (how long depends on where you are located) and you can start cover driving. Do well in that, and you can get a full time route. By the time you make it to cover driver, you will have gotten several decent raises, and saved plenty of dough thanks to the benefits. All union employees get the same health benefits with vacation increasing over time.

I drive a little 27 ton. It's fun. So few options it doesn't even have a cigarette lighter power outlet. The ride is rough because of the short wheelbase. So bad that the other drivers (that are all older than me) would rather let me have it while they use 50 ton trucks with 53 foot beds. Fine with me.

Good in the snow, not as fun as a CV. Wish they made AWD coupes for us given that a lot of departments don't do transports. But I realize that's not realistic or necessary for a northeast US city.

MAN, DAF, Mercedes, Renault tractor units.
Sprinter vans and other smaller merc vans.
Refrigerated rigids, curtain siders, box 7.5 - 24 tonne.
Shit like that.

It usually takes around 10-20 years of working as a package handler before you can land a driving job. IF you land a driving job, UPS starts you off with $15an hour and will slowly increase that pay for 3 years then youll get full pay scale. Keep in mind you will be the bottom tier guy and will have to take all the shitty, in the hood routes.

It's god-tier btw, we had it for two years now. Besides the MAF sensor, no other issue. It's 4-cylinder only (EU), but the strongest engine (meaning biggest turbo). It's awesome.

>>17541325
That's not a BMW but a Ford m8.

>>17546020
>It's god-tier btw
Oh and it's the 2.2L EU version. I would not buy the 2L new one. Packed up our van with 1.5T weight, and there was a serious wind in Italy. Well, needless to say, it struggled pretty much uphill.

We had a 2.4L Transit before, shit was cash. Strong as fuck.

I would also recommend checking out the Hyundai H250, it has a 2.5L stronk engine.
Then again I am talking about EU, if you are in the US, just get the Transit.

I drive a F-250 and do HVAC, it's like the middle one without the rooftop lights. 180k miles and the Ford runs a little rough.

With a different company, had a Sierra 2500 with 341k miles and ran fantastic.

I don't drive a work vehicle at the moment, but I used to drive this. A lot of back and forth between plants. We also had a small fleet of F250s, but I had the medical supplies for when the line workers hurt themselves.

A neighboring department had an LS1 Camaro at one time, but it was mostly for show. They got rid of it about 10 years ago because nobody wanted to spend 12 hours a day with all of their gear couped up in it.

But never buy one. The old ones rot like hell, and the new ones have engine/DPF troubles.

i drive pic related.

i learned not to feel bad for people with disabilitys because they are pieces of shit just like any other person. legally blind people piss me off because they always expect to be picked up at the front door their location. sometimes its impossible to do so. like picking them up from a heavy traffic area where i can not park at all.

this job sucks either way. 15.50$ a hour is not enough. a lot of people at my carrier quit and went to go work for UBER instead. they always have a lack of drivers and most customers think this a a car service which is not

>>17549176

Damn. Now that you say it, I have never seen a vehicle without it.

>>17549201
I had to use a similar service in my town after an injury. It was always really bitchy old people riding. Now I understand why these guys drove so recklessly, they were so tired of the riders they wanted to kill them both.

>>17551161
the only reason i do this is because of the money. like most of us we do things because we have to not because we want to. i work the night shift no its not too bad. the only headache is dealing with afternoon rush hour. i do overtime sometimes which is sunday. yesterday i had some dickhead brake check me because i "cut him off". the truth is when people see my trying to merge they speed up so they dont get stuck behind me because nobody wants to drive behind the bus. taxi drivers are POS too.
