Welcome back. Hope the new gig works out well. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

No scare on the parking. If it is crowded or muddy, go to the stadium parking lot. It is paved, and they run shuttles back and forth. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

There could very well be global warming, but there has never been any proof that it comes from anything other than natural climatic changes. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

The tanks I priced I believe were from KW of Jacksonville or one of their suppliers. That was acouple of years ago. 2800 for two seems too high. I would shop that a bit. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Unless something changes, I plan on being there at least 2 of the days. Look forward to seeing everyone again. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

would make sure the C unit was a D unit. Overall size and cost is similar but revenue potential definitely favors the D unit. ====================================================== Oh I don't know?????????? There was a former member that claimed making millions with a "C" unit. :7 I couldn't...

I think from a customer relations stand point, there are certain advantages from using sales/local or regional dispatchers etc. Many customers prefer that way of communication verses dealing with someone 1000 miles away. Pros and cons to both. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Alot of shippers require a million regardless of the vehicle. That aside, you are a rarity as far as doing it part time. If you look through the archives, I would be surprised if you found very many part time expediters. I don't recall any. But, there is a first time for everything, but still...

A secondary issue to add to Terry's post is that in Panther's case, they are dispatching from three locations. Seville, Chicago, and Charlotte. I could see in some instances were something might slip through the cracks. Alot of that is when they send the same load twice. Davekc owner...

The biggest ones ae if you are going to run a reefer or not. Either way, the class eight will be a more durable truck, but cost alot more. A small C unit that is a 7 will work just as well, and you could buy two in the spand of the 8. Just depends on how you look at it. On a 14 footer I would...

I think Broom's is alittle more economical. And, it worked well when I seen it. I would send a PM to Broom and let him fill you in on the unit he has. It may or may not be what you are looking for. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Your mind may say yes, but in several months doing this casually, your wallet will say your an idiot. Pretty much the same as the others......this IS not a part time business. Do it as a part timer and expect to fail. Really listen to the advice the others are giving you. If you want part...

Joe, When you say C unit, that is alot of ground to cover. Are you talking a dry or reefer truck? We used to have F350's (essentially pickups) with 14 boxes all the way to KW's with 16 foot boxes. All were a "C" unit. Might have to give a better idea of what you are thinking? Might just be a...

KW does have a good point. Never heard of a carrier charging that either. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

There are decent loads on many boards. Sometimes it takes two loads to obtain a great rate. It does take time, but if you are sitting for days, it might be a good alternative. Also, some of the best loads never make it to a board, so any relationship that you can develop with a good broker is...

I would have alittle patience as you just had poor performing drivers. A poor driver in a dry box will still be a poor driver in a reefer. Take your time and find a decent team prior to anything else. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

They have a great worksheet at www.ooida.com to figure your CPM. Just plug in your numbers and work it from there. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator
