    old conway-now drivers

    Hi Dave, The issue with P2 VS "Ex-Cons" is simple, and you are correct about dealing with new situationes, changes, etc. P2 has done and does some "dirty deads" to drivers that anger dispatchers. Scott as you remember has a habit of giving out company info in a public forum. The "Ex-Con"...

    old conway-now drivers

    I agree with you. I have a history with Scott, he did the same personal info in a public forum to me. I don't understand P2's thinking on allowing him to do this. When he did it to me here in the general forum I called his supervisor and went up the chain. They aperantly don't care. Every...

    old conway-now drivers

    Hey Scott, Panther still letting you talk about business info in a public forum??? This is a prime example of Panther mentality. Here is a quote from art Linkletter <spell> "The first one to speak looses" From his book published in the 60's on basic sales and management procedures. Rikk...

    old conway-now drivers

    My wife and I pulled out 3 or 4 weeks after the changeover. I couldn't get any streight answers, short runs, unsafe practices, Being treated like an employee. I could go on, but will cut it there. P2 was not for us. Nuff said for now Rikk

    old conway-now drivers

    {Edited, goofed up spellin'} Hmmm, It is interesting Scott that I left and went to a small company and am making twice what I made with Panther. Yes maybe Con-Way did things the wrong way but the question and topic now is why is Panther loosing so many drivers? I talked with a driver that has...

    Westernstar 4900SA

    Great info, one note. I have driven a truck with the MBE4000. Love the engine. Smooth and quiet, but had problems getting parts and filters. I had done a dumb thing and ran over my oil cap. Took 6 weeks to get a replacement.... Oh one other issue with the engine that I had and found that it was...

    New Panther/Conway drivers

    Ahhhh rong again bozo, we started complaining the last week and a half. During the first part we never too advances like the rest, we were 100% across the board. YOU and the dispatchers brought on the complaints. Ask 10 people 10 questions you got 12 answers. I'll bet you have never seen the...

    New Panther/Conway drivers

    You missed 2 things, tell us who you are. You have nothing to hide right? Also, You missed another thing. P2 did not make my truck payment for me the paid me on the original date that was agreed to. You must have been one of them that told use the wrong info in the first place. Again, your such...

    New Panther/Conway drivers

    Scotr, if I were you I'd go find your boss and fess up to this. I have filed a liable case against Panther over this post. They are interested in finding you. It is my guess you are Eddy, Paul, or Sean. I can tell you now, I no longer drive for Panther. All I plan on doing is telling it like it...

    New Panther/Conway drivers

    Hmmmm, a Panther insider. Funny only a few people in P2 know me by Rikk. Secondly, Giving out info from a private phone call is a but on the wrong side.

    New Panther/Conway drivers

    1st off, Panther is ONLY concerned about thier bottom line, PERIOD. Panther has so many trucks now they can careless about you the single O/O. Fleets get special attention and have more leverage. You are correct, The dispatchers are about useless. I was 3 hours early to a delivery, and playing...

    EO Forum is censored now?

    Check the first amendment guys. The "Tired of hearing" the Panther Conway saga is gone. Hmmmm, could it be due to the fact that Panther is the Sponsor? Or maybe the moderator is a Panther driver? Looks like the same crap we are getting from P2.

    Enough with Panther Bashing...

    My problem with Panther isn't so much as the pay but the dispatch procedures. #1 they do not split single or team trucks. I have had nothing but single driver loads since this purchase took place. I was also told by 3 different so called managers I would get my settlement (And for you Panther...

    con-way sells out

    Dave, FedEX is now #2. I am one of the PBO's picked up by Panther, and look forward to the new relationship. The offerings and perks recieved from Panther are great. It's kinda like football teams. I like one you like the other :)

    Hours of Service Rumor

    Actually, you have to look at it a bit different. Most people have "trained" themselves to operate under the 5/5 conditions. Retraining you sleep habits is not an easy thing to do. Also sitting in one place day in and day out for long periods can be a problem for a lot of people. My wife and I...

    North Carolina Runs

    One reason may be how close to Christmas it is. Most manufacturing begins in the north central US and Canada, then makes it's way to plants in the south. I usualy get out of Atlanta or Greenville fairly quick. You may ask your dispatch how many trucks are on the board where you are. Rikk...

    Forget to use dolly / landing gear

    Also, besides dammage to the truck. It s a major safty factor. A lift can weigh between 8,000 and 10,000 pounds. I had a situation where a doc jocky drove the lift on the truck before I had the gear all the way down and almost flipped the truck. Rikk Con-Way NOW 961211
