We see the security trucks as often as not. Around Memphis a while back the security truck was there, but no driver. Stayed all day driver never showed up. Has anyone watched the walmart special on stars? "Walmart is Killing America" At the end it listed all the assaults in the country on wal...

We had to give up on caffeine it wasn't helping. In turn we started sleeping better and have less trouble driving 10-11 hours each. We have pets so the stopping every 3-5 hours to walk them for fifteen minutes helps keep us from getting too tired as well. Little fresh air quick walk to the...

Pretty sure this was a panther class. We were in town on Friday having some QC repairs made, and got to see the show. Newbies everywhere, stressing out. We told several to relocate to get started, but the recruiters were steadily saying just keep sitting here you will get your load. Even told...

RE: what is the most memorable thing you have expe The night mars past the closest ever to the earth the media made such a big deal about it, we had to drive through Roswell that night. White knuckles all the way. The southern CA. Mountains no dirt just bare rocks stacked that's one of the...

Sometimes it depends on your carrier. We have gotten numerous violations for running the truck to the shop for repairs near home when off duty. Then we tried logging just who drove the truck to the shop and got violations on the other driver not logging on duty not driving. I have figured out if...

All we have seen thus far is a log check, and almost got a ticket for logging sleeper berth. "This little truck can't have a sleeper." It's not a giant sleeper only 84", but it seems like the windows on top would have given it away. Our tax dollars at work.

romoore245 we couldn't think of anything that could be acceptable, so we just used what sprint gave us when we signed up for mobile broadband [email protected], much better than two smarta$$es in a truck.

I worked as a short order cook for a spell, a job that doesn't even pay the bills much less leave extra in your pocket, the times when folks stopped and brought me a tip for a good meal. ##### that made my week, not just my day. I figure even if the shower is not perfect, as long as they...

We scanned our logs and emailed our loads, but they didn't show as received. What part of this system wasn't working before the email or the faxes? Is someone checking the email? What is the deadline, if we email our load in at 0900 on Monday will it be on the next settlement(two weeks of...

We have three Chihuahuas, they are a handful at times. As breaks go they can wait as long as we can most times, but the youngest one is just a year old and if she has to go out, or is just bored, she will bark at the driver until we pull over. We have had her in the truck since she was three...

Looks good I changed the % and it updated right away. meals are $52 on per deim weither cost or not that is the numbers your working with. Can you put in oil, coolant, additives, window wash. To see just what is spent on the road. Profit is such a realtive term when dealing with the irs.

We just learned about the need for good insurance the hard way. April almost died back in January from Crohn's. We thought we're young we don't need insurance yet. How wrong we were, now April isn't eligible for affordable insurance. Everyone we call has said 2000 a month and three years without...

We run a load from Memphis to San Diego last week, for Panther. We then were given a load the next day going to Charlotte NC. Five minutes later the load was pulled from us because a solo needed the load more than we did. We then sat for four days and finally got a load to AR. It was a fair...

Since the name of the thread is Feline Frustration we have a new one. We had only a few load offers today, three times each on two of them. The loads were short with bad extras, At one point we were offered a second run which would pick up after the first del. "Sounds good, Send the info...

Back when we had our wreck we had to do the one way rentals. We used Hertz. I think. The trip from Memphis to TX was easy the airport was full of cars they needed relocated. Then when we needed to go from TX to OH to get our new truck. We gave Hertz a weeks notice. They had to drive a mini van...

We get our PS at Attwoods always cheaper than walmart when in stock. I heard some old timers talking a while back, saying they just keep a bottle of rubbing alcohol in the truck incase of a gel up, to be poured in the tank and it instantly fixes the fuel. Has anyone ever heard of this or tried it?

One of our favorite places that we can't get to very often is "Cafe Fourteen" 300 S Hicks Rd, Palatine, IL (847) 705-6330 in the Chicago area theres a large parking lot nearby. Some of the best northern dining we stumbled upon. Its a dinner in the morning a a type of club setting in the...

I came across something on the drivers page for panther that gives a start date. I think it said 7-22-06, as our start day that seems right, but did we find out day of or day after?

First reply of 2007!!! Happy new year!

That's interesting, but when we came back in service after thanksgiving Panther called and sent me in for a drug test. I was chatting with the spotter and he told me they were only testing for drugs. That anything else would be considered a special request test. I was dumbfounded! Then I thought...
