We carry both Sprint and Verizon phones. Sprint seems to have better coverage now than Verizon. We have always used a two phone system. One, the Verizon phone, for business and emergency calls only and the other, Sprint, for friends and family calls. The only thing I would recommend if you...

Charlotte, You commented on your team getting a great load to the northwest and then you eating the dead head for them to go back to LA which I’m guessing was approximately 1150 miles. So, given that we, an owner operator truck, had taken that run to Washington State and let’s say it...

Chances are your total cost of an apportioned plate for an entire year(IRP) would be around $800 or less. Something to think about.... -mcbride- --What goes around comes around--

If you have an area where you can mount a pot....get the under cabinet Black and Decker. We really like it. We bought a stainless carafe and it keep the coffee hot if you don't use it all up in your travel mugs. -mcbride- --What goes around comes around--

Dave, your solution for people getting out of a busy/non-busy location is always for them to find their own loads. My question to you is what are people paying Panther for? I do realize that I am beating a dead horse with regards to this issue with you. However, many people out here do not have...

Although I don’t consider myself an ‘OPW’, I admittedly, could be considered an “instigator†in EO land. I don’t care much for this characterization but so be it. I just read through several pages of posts on the site and one thing I did notice is that in my opinion this site over...

I posted there but can't seem to find my post. -mcbride- --What goes around comes around-- }>

Dave, I too, have felt the need to leave for a while....actually, I just started posting again after being gone from here for almost a year. The Con-Way buy out prompted my return to the site as I knew there would be some information on it. Sometimes "the powers at be" can make it challenging...

Turtle, Excellent post on this thread, although I seriously doubt anyone on the site will heed to your intelligent observations... This site, like many, has beat the whole "censorship" thing to death. -mcbride- --What goes around comes around--

We have a freightliner with a pusher axle and "poorjoe" just replaced all of the air bags himself. It took about 20 minutes a bag. The biggest pain, I think, lol, was jacking up the rear of the truck. All I can warn you is: make sure you get the RIGHT airbags. If you want to speak with...

Exp- Thanks for the well wishes. We are very happy with our recent decision. The irony of it is we both realized just today how much stress we felt we were under before the move. We both commented to one another on how we felt like a big weight had been lifted from our shoulders. Please...

I am not blaming the pilot. -mcbride- --What goes around comes around--

Frankly, I find the whole concept of using another screen name peculiar. If I were to have intentions of “flaming†someone, I would want them to know exactly who I was. -mcbride- --What goes around comes around--

Exp- I am glad you came to some sort of solution for your Canadian dilemma with regard to Panther. We, on the other hand, felt this, as well as other issues, were going to continue as a never ending battle for us. We decided we would be better off to go else where. We have been expediting...

What is distressing about Panther with regard to Canadian loads is the actual procedures they use to dispatch them. If you are ABLE/ALLOWED to go to Canada and refuse a Canadian dispatch you go to bottom of list, regardless. If you are able to go to Canada, you are number one, and the others...

Some of what I'm wondering is: How & when did you become involved in expediting? ----We came into expediting in 1999-which was an anomaly I think with regard to the trucking industry especially expediting-due to the year 2000 approaching. We worked for Roberts then and made a ton of money...

IMO, One of you MOD guys should just lock, delete, purge, or what ever you can do...with this thread too. It will keep gaining life and I know that I am not contributing to it do....for that apologize. I know with regard to myself, the whole topic just brings up bad memories of a time ago that...

The following short quiz consists of four questions and will tell you whether you are qualified to be a “professional.†Scroll down for each answer. The questions are NOT that difficult. 1. How do you put a giraffe into a refrigerator? > > > > > > > > > > > > > > The correct answer is...
