VP44 source question - dirt simple
Okay, the VP44 in my '01 has died. I 've replaced them before, and the job is easy. My ONLY question: What vendor (I know there are several) DOES NOT SHIP VIA UPS. That is my sole criteria for who will get my order.
Thanks.
Jim

I hate UPS, I always ask the seller to ship it via fed ex or USPS priority mail... if they do, great, if they don't I move on to one that will.

huh?
UPS provide real tracking information..like fedex..
USPS??forget tracking..
I just a part(non dodge) it started out DHL??then USPS..
yep no more tracking..
it arrived so no problems..just no tracking
for something like a VP44..for me tracking is critical
just my thoughts

So, no. UPS gets nothing from me... ever
This wasn't the only problem I've had with PS, just the last. FEDEX costs more, but I've never had a problem. Granted no tracking with USPS. That's why I go FEDEX.
The next VP44 is a 'no-hurry' situation. I have a spare truck, no schedule, and a 1400 square foot hangar to work in. It will be a nice relaxed couple hours hanging out and turning wrenches with my brother.

Despite my anti- UPS rant, I ordered and have received my rebuilt VP44 from Thoroughbred Diesel. I believe NOT needing the part in any sort of hurry helps.
