    International trucks

    When I first got in it, it had 150k on it. Had to shift without the clutch. Now it has near 250k, and it's still stiff. Not stiff as far as moving the stick, but stiff as far as having a small sweet spot. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    expressway

    I advise you to talk to one or more of their drivers and ask how good they are at getting you loaded outside their area. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    Interesting CR Unit (3 Photos)

    With the Col on this one. Just another small rv with a 14' or so fridge. What's interesting about it? Nice subliminal plug in the background tho. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    International trucks

    It's a city truck. The layout on the dash isn't like a big rig. Also, I don't care for the 10 spd Eaton in it... very stiff. I don't know if it's common with this truck, but we get leaking thru the seals on the top of both doors when it rains hard. Overall, I'm happy with it tho. Alumibunk's...

    mardi gras.. sheesh

    Not to mention Jefferson, their congressman who hid $90,000 in his freezer, was indited on like 27 counts yesterday. Funny thing is, his district re-elected him AFTER the scandal about the money in the freezer. Goes to show what kind of ppl populate his district. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    International trucks

    I drive a 7500 and love it! Took some time getting used to, but the ride is good, turns on a dime. Way different than the older models. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    refrigerator questions

    Most trucks have rv fridges that connect directly to the truck's 3 or 4 batteries. A 3000 watt inverter doesn't do much good if you only have one battery. You need 4. Even then, I wouldn't hook the fridge up to the inverter. It needs constant power (batteries). -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    One of Us or One of Them?

    I wouldn't sweat it! A lot of what you're getting now is frustration. Granted, some of what ppl claim can be true. It is understandable that a company could cater to a fleet owner as it hurts more to lose multiple trucks than an unhappy owner of one truck. Not saying that's how it goes with your...

    tall load

    If the load were actually 8300# and loaded floor to top, I'd drive more careful, but not concerned it would tip. Closer to 10,000# I'd get a little worried, as I have one axle also. If it really felt unstable, I'd say it was either overweight or they loaded the lighter freight on the bottom...

    Panther bashing at truck stops?

    On the contrary... most of the problems one faces ARE their own fault. Not always the case, but usually that's how it is. Inexperience being the biggest. On the last thing you said, about it being YOUR business, I couldn't agree more. I'm working toward complete control so what happens will be...

    Pistons blew it again!

    How does a team with a 2-0 lead lose 4 straight? Ask the Pistons. They let a lesser team dominate them again this year. Maybe the coach isn't that good. Glad I'm not huge on basketball, but it still grinds my gears. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    Panther bashing at truck stops?

    There's a big difference between a negative attitude and a negative comment. Also, some of those you claim have a negative attitude may just be disgruntled. All the talk on here about so many doing great with a company could trigger comments from those who believe they've done all they can, but...

    EO Graduate 2

    Phil... why should the Col answer a question you've evaded since you've been here? When you say it's rude and obnoxious to come out and ask someone what they make then do it yourself, I smell hypocracy. If I misunderstood you, please clarify. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    Panther bashing at truck stops?

    Wayne... Dude... hear me now or listen later. You might not know this, but this bashing or whining, as you would call it, serves a purpose. If you get past the name calling and obvious anger in the posts, you get to the meat and potatoes of what these ppl are saying. It's called reading between...

    more problems

    Grog... since you're in the Detroit area, I recommend Arrow truck repair. They're on Fort Street, practically under the bridge. They've been in business since the 20s, and there's a reason for it. Last time I was in was a couple years ago, and they STILL remember me. Reliable, decent price, and...

    Panther bashing at truck stops?

    Only one on here who is whining is whining about the whiners. Just because you get a warm fuzzy feeling about Panther doesn't mean everyone drinks the same kool-aid you do. -Vampire Super Slooth Trucker!!!

    Stupid sounds at 03:02

    What's all this talk about whining? They are discussing an INCONVENIENCE that Panther can't get thru their head. As hard as you guys say you're running with them, you'd want all the sleep you can get! And the qc going off at 3am isn't my idea of Panther rolling over and kissing me on the cheek...
