Just like with any business if you want something you have to pay for it. Manage your money and you will not have a issue. Panther pays every week they just hold the 1st wk. Been with them 8 yrs. When we first started we got no 45% load. You paid for all your fuel up front. We still run that way...

Been with panther for 8 yrs. O/O T/T we run as a Hubby /wife team. Tampa is not a good frt area for Panther but then fact is, don't think Van frt in Fl. is good for any company. We get freight in but hard to get out. Freight is picking up and we have been doing much better this year then we did...

Dang it I missed the Panther bashing. lol..... Turtle good post. I agree

1. Have you had similar encounters with the DOT? If so, what were the results? Have had no problems with DOT. We use the Omnivision QC, it is all touch screen, even has a place to put in the fax number to the DOT and is faxed to them within min. 2. What does Panther say about...

Almost always at TA Panther fuel discount. You can't beat the price.

Great Idea my hubby and I would like something like that. Since we stay away for 6 to 8 wks at a time. Come Think about it. It would be better that home because we have our Daughter, Son in law and three kids living here. No peace and quite when we go home.

I give them alot of credit. I sure they are in a van because neither of them have a CDL. Out of all the Truck classes this I think would be the hardest sector of the industry because of the lack of creature comforts in a Van. Like the rest of you I would have like to seen dispatch not know...

Quite often shoulder pain is not caused from anything you did with your arm or shoulder, but caused by a nerve being pinched in the cirvical spine at c-5 c-6. With the job we do it is the constant low vibration that causes the disk to buldge thus causing the nerve to be pinched. You can have a...

I can't believe what I'm reading. Something so simple becomes so very stupid with the comments. Leo, Scuba, I like both Ideas and both would work without a problem. As for everyone else, they do not have a clue on how our system works and they are just blowing smoke. That is why this was posted...

Greg: As a Independent Contractor a Company can't make you take a load you do not want to take. They can't make you go to a country you do not want to go to, and last I new In this country we have no laws for speed limiters. And in this country we have the right to go 70 mph in many states. No...

I understand that this is another country, and I don't drive for FedX and if they told me I had to put a speed limiter on my truck I would be contacting a attorney for them trying to make me an employee. I also live in Michigan and Canada has always been an extension but when is enough, enough I...

I have the perfect solution. Why not let the government start genetically engineering the entire population then we can have a perfect race and we can all be the same. No health issues no medicines needed no laws because we would all be perfect. When is the holier then thou going to get it, we...

I have read most posts on the speed limiter post and am sorry if I missed one that got to the real point and am repeating what they may have said. Speed limiters are a infringement on our civil rights. It is making us as a sector of a population do something that the rest of the population does...

Both would work, but I like Scuba Idea better. Have all trks listed at that VT you may find friends that u didn't know u had. I like the Idea. Pity parties r a blast. We all need a good laugh we we r out here.
