I read it on one of the back posts here on EO. I don't know if I want to go with panther,so I am asking as a industry average. The post I read was from last year.I am looking for a more recent average. What should I expect in reality,not pumped up recruiter talk.

I got it from Panther. Patrica Wells sent me an o/o pamphlet. In it it says vans are 1.10 plus FSC. Any way, what should I expect for CPM in a van on average? Does .87 sound right? P.S I got the pamphlet 2 months ago.

no I got the o/o info and vans are now contracted a 1.10. I know last year s/t were at 1.35,but now there down to 1.25.Guess they changed it. But still .87 seems low. Am I wrong?

What would you say your are average pay per mile is? I tried reading past posts,and it did not sound right. I am with Panther right now in a s/t but they said van rate is 1.10 plus FSC. The other posts i have read are saying like .87 cpm. I know they offer at reduced rate but it still doesn't...

How many miles would you say you get a week? And do you get FSC as well? If so whats it averaging?

I dis agree. My husband and I drove TT for 10 years and have been doing s/t now for a year.I found we did 6000 miles as a company TT and get paid the same amount as working for an o/o s/t for doing 3000 miles. I love it!! Most of our loads do come out after 2 pm so yes alot of waiting in the...

My husband and I are drivers at panther. We got out for 6 weeks and home for 6 days.Over a 6 month time period we averaged 1800 miles a week if that helps. I am looking into getting a van how many miles do you and yours average?

I think you pass. My husband and I are in a s/t right now and want to start our own business. I can buy a van out right or have payments on a s/t. Trying to run the numbers but for a solo in the van and team in the s/t.I don't think I could handle teaming in a van.I love him but not that much!

True, but I read these horror stories and at least I get paid on time. This is my first time with an owner op are there better ones out there, or is it always a give and take.

Whats the average amount of miles you do per week? And do you think it is more profitable owning a van or a straight truck?

Is there such a thing as A good fleet owner? I mean doesn't everyone have flaws? Granted I have only worked for 1 fleet owner and in some aspects hes good and others hes not so good. My pay is always correct, no money has to come out of pocket for repairs,and there real nice.But when it comes to...

My question is why did you give him a 400$ fuel advance? I mean doesn't the driver get an advance on his fuel card when he gets a load? And why 400$ It cant be that much to fill his tank. As for the bad driver, well theres also bad fleet owners, it goes both ways.

wait heres another one, Fuel nossles! How many times have you gone to get fuel and the driver before you never released the handle and fuel comes gushing out.LOL I only did once, but every now and then I catch myserf not checking.

I have one for you, I was at a shipper that locks your icc bumper in when the truck beside me got the green light. He poped his breaks in steped on the gas started out of the hole and ripped his icc bumper right off. Turns out the lock was broken and diddent always retract.The light was green...

exactly what I was thinking! so I want to know,can a driver average 1.25 loaded miles on % and if so what company?

you are correct. 1.15 no lift gate 1.25 with one 1.35 for reefer 1.50 tval. I am with an owner op now his rate is 1.35 with no liftgate. so I have to buy more truck for less pay. I did the math and i'm not comfortable with the profit margin at 1.15. so if I dont get the liftgate i cant work for...

its loaded miles plus fuel surcharge

Dave, I agree with you about the boat anchor. The problem is even as a team, with hazmat we would be at 1.15 without it. Doing the math we would be barley scraping by.leaving very little for emergencys. I like this company, but dont know if we could make it. Any advice?

we had that problem to.Our acceptance went below 67% and ended up sitting for 4 days. when I figured out what was happening I went in and looked at my availability and over half were wrong! over 8 hrs was put as a refusal too much dead head, one we took but they still put it as a refusal. You...

I work for panther right now and I am buying my first truck.Now panthers new pay package will give me 1.25 a mile but I have to have a lift gate. Now some ppl say that with % I would get paid more per load. I'm a little Leary about that any advice would be appreciated.
