Thanks for the breakdown, Bruno. We have been pleased with our savings as well.

Dang jaminjim, i see were you are comming from. $1.70 / loaded mile, no way man, i'd quit if thats what this job paid. i easily average over $1.95 for all miles. Now i do admit, i've only done a little over 10,000 miles as of closing my books for Oct this afternoon. I know I know thats...

Quote by Bruno: "I have been out on the road the last few weeks seeing how Panther is since we moved all the trucks to Panther. I will say the fuel discounts that they have set up with the TA is a very good one. We saved in the one truck I drive in almost $600.00 over the last two weeks. We now...

YOU MEAN THEIR ARE SOME THAT DO THIS FULLLLLLLLL TIME????? sshhhhhhhhh...... not so loud as to let my owner know. Good luck to you and welcome.

Doug, I haven't read your post or I don't remember it as being out of line. As far as questioning things around here.......eheheheheheheheh. Some of those who are supposed to guide and direct us often can be found in the middle of a controversial blog. Their ball, their rules. No-one said...

Wow, you two have made a terrible string of decisions. As others have stated, LEARN, from this 90 days. Before you go off and invest in your own van, you need to invest in some classes of basic business policy and proceedures. There are plenty of folks who can give you valuable advice on...

Great post Leo. I, like you, have a great Dad. He showed me early on what a mans role was in taking care of his family. To this day I thank him for being there. We were often teased as I was growing up, especially when I got into high school as my Father is 5'8" and I am 6'4". Dad said he...

Turtle, I've played in groups with brass players, always heard them talking about keeping their lip, explains alot of your posts ( lol ). I'm an oldtime r- n- r and bluesman, if my name didnt give it away. I've been playin guitar since '59. Got my first gig in '66. I've got some live things...

Turtle, I suppose we agree more than disagree, I just think our debate over smokin ( LOL ) may over shadow our willingness to "agree". Every industry I mentioned in my response to you, is an industry I have worked in. I am still an active professional musician , not as much now as I would...

Turtle quote: "I would point out that, like any thing else from another industry or vocation, you are limited on how you can apply it to expediting. People with 20, 30 years of successful business experience come into expediting and are shocked at how little of their experience they can apply...

This is very sad. If it is true that the driver only had his CDL for 9 days........ I say it is criminal and the fleet owner should be brought up on murder charges.

over the last 27 years we have lived in 15 different homes we have bought from Ohio to California. We own two now and are going to buy the third after the new year. In all our looking over the years, we have come across many indivuals who had invested 25,35% or more, as a down payment and...

Linda and I pulled into the Pilot at Breaux Bridge Friday afternoon. We were looking for a place to settle in for the weekend as we had a load for Monday afternoon in New Orleans. This seemed like a good spot. Next door was a Super WalMart to replenish our supplies. A waffle house across...

Okay, lets say a new player comes on board, call him "feed da kitty expediting". He only wants C or D units ( sorry B and E's, I promise to include you next time). His customer loaded milage rates are between 2.00 and 4.00 /mile, depending on type of truck ( dry or Reefer ), frt, wt., Haz...

Ohhhhh, could be another long nite. I'm a die hard Bucks fan, so lets hope the season is tougher on USC and slows em surfer boys down a bit. or their speed could kill us again.

jaminjim, i dont record the dh miles and loaded miles seperatley into my data base. the total miles and total pay is my only concern. now while i do write the DHL and DHPU into my book when the offer 1st arrives i condense that info as it serves me no purpose on my budget spread sheet...

jaminjin and Dynamite 1, of the the total miles, ( 75,531 ) i have aprox. 7900 miles not directly tied to offers. you know those mystery miles that show up after the drop. hunting for a lay over spot, going to a mall or out to eat. of those 7900 miles 2400 can be associated with Dhing home...

With contrite heart I bow out of this blog, as I am sure, I am insulting someone with my attack on bruno. my apologies to EOland.

Oh Bruno, Someone dares to ask him for facts. again you are blowing smoke. Dont start on me or Fedex, this your post, and my questions are on target. Find one response here on EO where I bashed Panther. You wont. Never will. I only question those who ummmmmmm are questionable...
