    Voters don't choose

    Yeah, they are, and it's no surprise this is coming out of North Dakota, either. I noted in this post in another thread how corrupt North Dakota is. But the Elites, in both parties as Leo noted, feel they should be able to just huddle up and pick who they want. The Dems made that very clear...

    Headed to Panther!!!!

    That's because you think you should be able to turn downloads without having to incur consequences. The term “forced” is the thing most folks get all bent out of shape over. Nobody likes to be forced to do anything. Maybe the term should be changed to, “Strongly suggested if you want any good...

    Recommend inverter?

    Been looking at the Rewards option, too, in case I need a new one any time soon.

    Which headset do you use? Take a look at these!

    I use a Blue Parrot. I like the "dork" look. Most states don't have any laws at all against earbuds or headphones. The ones that do, like Ohio, prohibit both ears from being used, or exempt communications devices. Here's the list from AAA for the US and Canada.

    Recommend inverter?

    I don't have any experience with that one specifically. I had a 3000W pure sine wave AIMS inverter that worked great, but a nut inside the box (that held the Positive terminal in place) worked loose, rattled around inside, shorted and fried the thing. I know 3 other people who have had problems...

    Sprinter height

    Oh, yeah, and like tknight says, it's not cheap. It was $120 back in 09. Don't know what it is now. The citation is "NO CMV ON PKWAY NYC". And it happened in the Sprinter. I used to live in central Jersey (back in the 80s) and would go to JFK fairly often, flying in or out myself, or picking...

    Low prices are killing this month!ppl bending over like crazy!

    If it were disruptive and/or off-topic, of course it would. The rules prohibit "excessive obscene or vulgar language" (with the definition of "excessive" being solely a judgement call of the Mods and Admins). If it's not excessively obscene or vulgar, it's not off-topic and doesn't provide a...

    Leave Me Alone

    Newbies generally need their hands held and a little baby sitting, so in that respect Panther is actually a really good carrier with which to start out. Once you learn their system, know how it works, why it's in place, embrace the stupidity, and then are able to make it work to your advantage...

    Sprinter height

    Mostly it's very old RR overpasses, drive thrus and certainly parking garages, but there are a few where you have to be careful. In NY and NJ, a few other places in the east, stay off any Parkway. They're for passenger cars only. The signs either say No Trucks or they say Passenger Cars Only...

    Leave Me Alone

    The ones who do require babysitting ruin it for everyone else, as Panther treats everyone to the lowest common denominator. Just to be on the safe side.

    Big Truck PLEASE HELP!! I HAVE 2008 HINO W/DPF PROBLEMS.

    That's really funny when you think about it. :D

    We don't have any autocorrect functions in the forum software. If you're having words replaced as you type, there's some autocorrection going on with your end. The Wrench toggles the Rich Text and BB Code editors, where the Rick Text editor is WYSIWYG and the BB Code editor shows you the raw BB...

    Headed to Panther!!!!

    Forced dispatch means you have no choice to accept or refuse the load. Period. If you refuse to do the load, you will be terminated. The term applies almost exclusively to company drivers - A.K.A., employees. The notion of an independent contractor being forced to accept a load, or be...

    Turn off the Autocorrect feature of your phone.

    Panther doesn't have forced dispatch. That's probably because you don't understand what forced dispatch is.

    The Trump Card...

    That can happen a lot with Google, not only because of their own caches, but because of local caches. Also consider that the Q&A was over and Trump was leaving, he was on his way out, when Fields jumped in and tried to ask another question. That's her style - ambush citizen journalism. Some...

    March 2016, where are you going ??

    It depends. At Panther, more often than not, the shipper's paperwork was right. A Load One, more often than not, the QC load information is right.

    March @ team Load One

    Dry hump originates from 7th or 8th grade, and often is accompanied by a kiss or several. Your "more accurate terminology" is arguably a much better description, at least for one of the parties involved.
