If you are new, experience and reputation. Ask for current references from existing drivers. Not ones from a year ago or a long lost relative. Is there a contract? Very risky to operate without one. Even the best situation can turn ugly with a simple misunderstanding. Do you and the owner have...

I use yahoo and when you hit the reply, you can see from whom sent the message. Not sure on other email programs. Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

Whether it is intentional or not it has only been roughly a couple of months since your claims of making $3.00 per mile and then retracting it. You content and delivery is usually what is questioned. An example of this is; ATeam wrote The implication that your trucks are doing better than us is...

In alot of cases it is not the content but how it is delivered. Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

A in line fuse is always recommended on that type of appliance because of the draw at start up. Your inverter has a bank of fuses in it but they are a pain to change if you blow one. You will have to know the peak draw from your fridge and see if your inverter can handle it. Additionally, some...

Are you running it through a inverter? Most of the time, running it straight to the battery (12V) with a fuse is your best bet. On units with a a/c and d/c alternate, the switch block on the fridge itself burns out over time. Or, a 110 system can't go straight to the battery without a inverter...

It is the puffery and flowery attributes that draw many unsuspecting people in. Many only see part of the picture rather than all of it. Or just what they choose to see. Simular to the business model that Amway uses. The biggest difference here is that the risks personally and financially are...

Sad, but a direction that many companies and industries are following. And in many ways, the world of money and politics drives the whole thing. Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

Reality is, Broompilot, that a married couple team with healthy bodies, a strong work ethic, and good business sense can enter the industry and make good money almost immediately. Does that mean everyone can? Of course not, and most people with the IQ of a house plant know it...

We have owned just about all of them at one time or another. Their initial truck price is higher but for service and available parts go either KW or Pete. Since there are more Freightliners, you will tend to see more issues with them. Few ever report the good. Davekc owner 21 years PantherII...

Your having a Freightliner experience like we had last week. We had a 98 FL70 that had that problem several years ago. We found out that there are two designs, with the latter being thicker and not prone to breaking. We installed it and it lasted three years and then we sold the truck. We had...

You are correct in the one that I saw at the Expo. Churney had said a class 7 was in the works with a condo sleeper from AB. Their display was a Bentz. The class 7 would have the larger engine and air ride which the display didn't have. They would have a interesting product if the service...

don't question any of the above, but consider this: A reason vans appear to be so plentiful and sitting idle may just be their up front location in truck stop parking lots. We all tend to gather in the front near the roadway, whereas the larger trucks are scattered about in the not so visible...

I believe in this thread he is referring to "D" units. Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

Leo That is pretty much what it boils down to in my experience. Maybe a item to discuss in orientation to eliminate any confusion. Davekc owner 21 years PantherII EO moderator

this is a result of contractors walking away from Panther without telling them they're doing so. We all get punished for the crap a few jerks pull. That would seem like the likely reason. It is a gray area, thus their reason for notification prior to a extended leave to recieve last or final...
