Can't do Newt. Smart guy but I have a hard time getting past the fact that he left one of his wives when she had cancer. I would go for Huckabee long before Newt.

Bet your glad you lease that vehicle and they could give you a replacement while it was getting fixed. That could be a rough situation with one as a expediter. Huge losses in down time. Don't see these things in my fleet anytime soon.

Have to agree. Not sure about her as a presidential candidate, but she does bring something to the table that the republicans have been lacking.

One thing for sure, the democrats think she has something. Look at all the effort and money they are throwing to shut her up or discredit her. "Watch what they do, and not what they say".

I would say the hardest of them is the "E" units just on the premise they have to deal with a lot more with regards to regulations, costs, parking, trailer issues, and the list goes on. As far as what is more profitable to run depends on a lot of factors. As far as rates, I don't see van...

One thing for sure, they certainly have a story to tell.

What is probably funnier is that back then we had just AM radio, some with no A/C, and few had the luxury of a TV, Fridge, or a microwave. How spoiled we have become.:p Air-ride.....what was that?

Well, can't say I have done the van gig, but have done it in a Ford350 pickup with a 36" coffin sleeper for a lot longer than two weeks. I do believe that is smaller quarters than what might be in your van. No computers, no cell phones, no gps, and so forth. So, yep, feeling ok posting to this...

The whole point is to get a little insight in to what happens out on the road and help a charity at the same time. Too many try to complicate the simple. I believe some would still find something to bi#ch at if they were delivering a load on a wheel barrow. It would turn into "are they suffering...

Probably a 4.3 rear end. Mercedes aren't exactly a power house with the 330. Probably between that and constant EGR problems, they got scrapped in favor of the Cummins. I would say the engine is the bigger issue rather than the Allison assuming it is set as a 6 speed. I don't believe you could...

Very true. Could work the other way in that she takes him to court and he can counter sue for all kinds of things. Even more so if there is no contract. If his truck sat after they left, he could sue for damages there all the way to abandonment. All kinds of things really come to mind. Having a...

Then he is listing you as a independent contractor. It would be a rarity to see a actual employee running for a contractor. There was one several years ago here on EO but I believe that guy went out of business. No contract, you are pretty much out. Best bet is maybe try small claims court...

Probably time for a move. Can't see any value to this except for someone at Panther.

Then you were a employee rather than a contractor See "answer" link from that government department Answer!!

I believe your references are for an employee. Most drivers are independent contractors. Have to go a little different path.

He is replaced by Allen Motter coming as a senior exec from YRC Worldwide.

Sorry to hear about you situation. Just because you have to exit now, doesn't mean you can't come back when the time is right. Good luck and hope everything works out.

I don't know if there is a "perfect" way to do this when you have the company pres driving the van around. Will they experience everything? I highly doubt it. But just the fact they are getting out there to mingle and get some grasp of whats going on I think is a great idea. Remember, at the...

Some members when coming on go straight to the forums and might not be aware of this charity run. 2. Changing Lanes - Panther Execs Hit the Road 3. Panther Expedited Services | Facebook 4. Panther Expedited (PantherExpedite) on Twitter

If I was to buy a Freightliner, Middle Georgia would be at the top of my list. As mentioned, cost plays into it, but is not the driving factor overall. Service after the fact is. Our pick for that as far as dealers that sell trucks would be Kenworth of Jacksonville. Why? We never have to go...
