Boy do I remember those days... I was contracted to Roberts when it all went down , just like the conway deal..and btw...it was not a name change it was a sell out, fedex got RPS and Roberts Express for the same deal

Be really careful about those backhauls to canada, thats almost like ice skateing with a blindfold on....you might not ever have a problem, BUT when you do, Panther will not be there to resolve it, they will tell you it between you and the broker...just something to keep in mind, that $2 bux a...

Thought so, okay well in that case I wont say "my backhaul dept is better than yours"! Even though Panthers dept has never really done anything for me except book the loads I send them, I am still glad they are there to do that and when they are not there you can alaways send the fax and have...

So Dave, If I said "my backhaul dept is better than yours" someone might get their feeling hurt? Or will I get this long story about why someone dont use backhauls? Am I getting close here?

You following in my footsteps there Ken, or was it the moral god getting even with you for the flat tire comment?!!?!, anyway glad your ok and not too much damage to the new ride, look into getting a wrap around chrome one should be half the price and a lot stronger, mine cost me $250 and $50...

Well go figure, got one offer yesterday morning, nothing to get excited about, so I pulled the " old...make plans, they will call trick" and headed to the house and sure enuff, one of those wonderful pick up in the middle of nowhere loads popped up going to TX, but I had already made it to the...

OVM, some people will never "get" it...good point though.

Glad to see you guys got back off topic, was starting to believe that this thread too was going to make it to a topic of "bunnies" and we all know that that is a strick violation,...so with that being said ..no more "bunny" talk or you guys might have to start your own thread and this on will...

Dave are there some "new" charges for these latter things you mention? I have all of the above including the new GPS on the qc and am unaware of any new charges...or did I just misread your post? cause if I am paying for the GPS ..they can have it back its crap in my opinion.

I have to agree here, good job guys!:p

I have to agree with Jack here, go back and read as much as possible, you have to remember a few things here, right now things are slowing down and it is tough on solos, and you will be having to pay to feed and supply two mouths. Sometime when you first start out in this indusrty it is tough...

well no flat tires yet, but I did run into a roadside bomb last night, or should I say one ran into me!( first deer I have hit in 9 yrs, last night on 301 in Md.)

Well I threw my name in the running this year for tractor solo and we will see how it works out, Ken has done a great job and prolly knows the inner workings a little better than I do , but it is something I am willing to work with and learn a little more on, I do firmly believe in the things...
