And I thought you was cool. Boy was I wrong.

I would say if this was the case our trucks would be loaded all the time. We have ten trucks and they sit just as much as everyone else's does. If you really think that carriers catering to fleet owners then I guess we don't have a big enough fleet yet. Dang I knew we needed to buy more trucks...

Hey Bud, Yea Donny does a good job. He won't put his name on an inspection unless it's done right. He knows his stuff I must say. He fixed another Panther owner truck that they was told by Freightliner it would cost them about $4000.00 to $5000.00. Donny fixed the problem for $385.00 parts and...

That is GREAT NEWS to hear to be honest PHIL. And no I'm not trying to be a smarty pants.

Dave all you have to do is call everyone already knows who you are.

Just wanted to let some of the other Panther owners know that Mayfield Express LLC has a shop and we give a discount to all Panther owner operators. The shop rate for Panther trucks is $40.00 per hour. All non Panther trucks is $55.00 per hour. We do DOT inspections, oil Changes, and much more...

Hey Doggie Daddy just wanted to let you know we have a office in Medina now if you ever needed a place to park the truck. We also have a shop too. Our shop rate is really cheap. The office number is 330 723-5100

Don't know how that happened, only posted it once. thanks Leo for removing all those extra post:)

If your Fed Up with FedEx then come over to Panther like we did. We left with two D-units and two C-units. We now have ten trucks leased on with Panther. We are very happy with Panther with no plans to change. The people are more laid back and always treat us right. Last year was out best year...

Tell that to FedEx Ground then Greg. I'm sure they would love to have all those cases over turned by the IRS and the courts.

Phil I agree with what your saying, your taking it the wrong way. I didn't feel the need the post that I went to three lawyers but we did. We also called other fleet owners that have been in the business longer than we have been to see how they do things as far as equiptment. I won't post...

Phil I know you and Diane practiced law, you even worked on helping getting one of my favorite people put in the Governor office in MN. Jessie Ventura really could have ran for President and won if you ask me. All I Was trying to say is that the IRS is trying to find more ways to get at...

I know your not OVM. :) I'm justing try to bring things up to other fleet owners and drivers to keep them legal. Not to charge the Driver fee's. You can charge them a fee of a $1.00 as long as you charge them something. I could careless, all I was trying to do was help other owners and drivers...

Turtle Your missing the whole point. You think it is all about another way for owners to make money off of drivers which it don't have a darn thing to do with. It's about being legal in the eyes of the IRS. You have two fleet owners telling you the same thing from two different Lawyers that...

Your right Phil, it never hurts to spend a few dollars to save a bunch. As the old saying goes, "sometimes cheap isn't always better". Not saying this about the lawyer in any means. It's kinda like the truck you drive. It's one of the best trucks built and you paid a good price for it, but it...

I also see what your saying. You do have to offer the contractor a choice. It not about raping people either. Lets take people that pay for fuel that lease trucks from owners that have APU units on them. To have the APU units put on can cost $8000.00 to $10,000 dollars to save money on fuel. So...

Our lease is set up where they do pay us for the use of the truck. It is worded where they pay us 60% of what Panther charges the customer and 100% of the FSC. They get 100%of unloading fees, pallet jack charges (which is $50.00) it's only fair. The drivers are doing the work and the truck...

The Lawyer that did our LLC went over our lease and asked us many different things. If you provide anything to the contractor to do the job other than the truck they are leasing the IRS says they are employees. This is mainly goes for owner that does the 40/60 where the owner pays the cost of...

Turtle I like to see you tell that to IRS. This was one of the 1st things we was warned about when we change to a LLC. Nobody said you had to charge 100.00 a week. You just have to list it as equiptment use and some kind of charge. Just like the IRS is getting people for writing off 100% of...

I wouldn't worry about it we all have lost our cool at times. I don't know what you said. But I'm sure I have said worse.
