    Ark, I'd probably give him a shot, although Little League All-Stars don't really tell much, those are basicaly a popularity contest anyways. Another thing, the .790 batting ave. can be a little deceiving. You'd have to look at the caliber of competition he was playing against. I'd probably...

    PantherRecrtr

    From what we were told at panther orientation, if your getting $1.30/mi. and request 'no canada' your rate per mile drops to $1.15 for ALL MILES!!!!! Your definitely penalized from panther if you don't want the hassle of crossing the border, which I think is a total rip-off!!!

    LEFT vs RIGHT

    You hit the nail on the head Broom.........seems like all of the House and Congress are on a big ego trip!! The "look at me" syndrome, and watch how I use my power!!! In reality, it doesn't matter who's in the White House, Congress controls the money! Period! The Pres. can't spend one single...

    Who's Responsible

    Dave has the right answer......make a note on the company and simply turn down load offers from that specific company. Problem solved. Isn't it amazing how it's always the O/O that takes the 'hit'? Get me once, shame on you! Get me twice, shame on me!

    Life is just to short

    As OTR drivers, this scene is going to be witnessed by most drivers sooner or later. One thing you can do is be prepared........Take a Red Cross CPR course. Take a First Responder course, or Basic First Aid Course. With over 20 years experience in firematics and Emergency Services, I get...

    securing cargo and equiptment needed

    Wow, with all that stuff, is there any room left for the load???? Here's what I carried on the truck.......6 ratchet straps, 6 load locks. That's it. It all depends on what carrier your leased on with and what they require.

    Another Freightliner horror story

    G-Morning Hawk..........didn't mean anything personal by the lipstick remark.......just thought it was funny when my owner said that! :) It was his personal preference to stay away from Freightshakers and go with Pete's and KW's. As long as whatcha got is doin whatcha need, that's what it's all...

    Another Freightliner horror story

    I've driven T-300 KW's, Pete's, I believe they were the 300 series..........and ONE, and only one Freightliner..........Thank God it was only one..........Wouldn't want to climb into another. I got a chuckle out of the first owner I drove for. While hashing out the details of driving for him I...

    YIKES Nascar is expensive

    Any race fan absolutely needs to go to at least one race in person. There's no way you'll ever know the speed, smells, etc. unless you've been to at least one. After that, and the bankruptcy from buying the tickets, motel rooms, meals, souveniers, and GASOLINE, watch them on the tube. If you...

    Help!!!

    Hey, Nightcreacher, if it's difficult for a fleet owner to generate enough revenue with a solo, how buying your own truck would it make it any more profitable? Just curious

    Mistakes you have made?

    BEFORE signing a contract with an owner, ask questions, ask questions, ask questions!!! To late after you've signed your name. Remember, the only 'dumb' question is the one NOT asked. Treat the dispatchers with respect, no matter what. Makes things alot smoother most of the time. Drive and...

    need help a.s.a.p

    Just to throw in my 2 cents worth............Greg is right, probably not a good idea to plaster this all over the net.........get your proof, settle it between the 2 of you........then move on.............AFTER everything is settled, then you can write in here about your experience to warn other...
