I didn't see it, and I don't see anything mentioned about it. Try to repost it. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

If I was doing a van, I still like the areocell concept. Deisel did a great job on that one. Very interesting observations when making comparisons though. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

I don't see that ghost driver concept working at Panther either. It would be interesting though when their random came up and the other half is 1000 miles away. As far as Panther being sold, it is possible, but not for a good while. They have way too many opportunities available to capitalize on...

Hey Rich, Certainly enjoyed the visit and lunch. See you again in July! Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Moot has it right. You just have to make sure they either send it as two pro's or I usually do a flat rate for the whole trip. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Welcome aboard. No rip coming from me. It is all about expectations. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Wow........I was thinking the same thing. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

It does seem they come in waves. I think some are feeling a pinch because of changes in the business. The ones that are the most critical are the ones that paint themselves as an employee, rather than a business owner. You just can't be a steering wheel holder and think the money or loads will...

We are doing well and adding a few pennies a month to that pond. As to its location, it is a "secret":7 I should add for Topline, if your trucks are sitting, I would be alittle more selective on what your teams accept, move your trucks according to where the freight is, and educate yourself...

I don't think it is bragging if just the facts and or numbers are put out there. I don't see any posts that are of a gloating nature. We are doing well with numbers simular to Charlotte's post. But, I am very careful not to paint a picture of roses and puffery. For people making huge...

Good to hear. I do tend to think the vans business varies alittle more than straights or tractors. But, if you are prepared you will do ok. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

I have never heard of waiting to 9PM? Your macro 8 will give you the numbers via the QC as well. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

I don't follow the vans that close but so far, April has been a very good month for our straights. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Why, that request seems more than reasonable:7 Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Exactly why I wouldn't run one of these with a reduction anywhere. Our expenses aren't 50 percent less on the second half. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

If it is round trip, make sure you get a QC message indicating it is a full rate both ways. In your case, I wouldn't have taken it. We can't turn a profit on your described scenerio. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Panther gives you the average for 21 days. You have to call to get up to the minute inbound trucks. They only show inbounds with loads, not ones that may be migrating there empty. If you pick up one day and deliver the next, call at the respective times and you will know what went out the...

They did make a slight change. Just type www.pantherexpedite.com and it should work. If you are clicking on a link out of your favorites or bookmarks, it won't. Replace with this page and it should work. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

As long as there is a acceptance rate policy, there is still a penalty. I have never liked these because they don't refect that maybe one at 50 percent acceptance, could have been offered that ratio in bad loads. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Between time outs, excessive comdata charges and lowered rates, I don't know how some are making it. Sounds like alot of slow bleeding. As far as forced dispatch, Conway had the best system. Panther has the "drop to the bottom bit" but I can locate my own load if we want. So at least there is...
