Stewart, I would revisit the ooida site and recheck your information. Landstar is not the only company that pays 100 percent of the fuel surcharge. Additionally, since you mentioned OOIDA, they are currently involved in a class action lawsuit against Landstar. It appears based on limited...

I would highly recommend them as well. We have had great service any time we have went there. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

>I wouldn't want a 1000 mile d/h either. I just wanted to >point out that 50cpm after 100 beats 20cpm after 50. > You got that right! Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

I believe you have to call them within the thirty days. Not really sure on the pay. We never had ours held, but also haven't had our fleet down for 30 days either. Someone in contractor relations should be able to give exact information. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Thanks Dave, All of our trucks are full. We might add another in a few months, but haven't made any commitments as of yet. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Mike, When we have used them, they do have a board but it doesn't include much of the expedite freight. We have several agents that we call for that information. For us it depends on the region of the country we are looking. Their drivers have access all the time. What we have found is some...

Thanks for the clarification as I have heard about three versions of what was going on with that part. There was some tractors getting redecaled last week at Seville, but I am not sure how many. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Sorry to hear that. That is a bad day to say the least. Hopefully your insurance coverage will take most of the pain out. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

I think it would help the market as well if they eliminate all these different blends. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

The seven speed manual most refer to as being troublesome are the Spicers. The six speeds are usually a Eaton if a manual. Based on posts over the years, I would have to say the Eaton is more reliable. Again, nothing scientific but reading others experiences. Davekc owner 22 years...

Terry, You did bring up a interesting question. I would be curious as to anyone that has hauled their own freight while contracted to Fedex and what their experience has been with regards to rates and any limitations. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

That is interesting. It will be interesting if it just stays limited to Colorado. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Terry Panther is 85 percent on your booked loads regardless of vehicle size. Not sure on the others. Maybe Fosters or C&M? He will have to answer the others. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Chet, Last I heard Conway retained some of their tractors and they are doing LTL since they sold off the expedite. The rest went to Panther. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

DD Bobby Snyder did say this guy has new electronics with a new wiring harness. Might be worth a call. I only talked with him for a short while so my info is alittle limited. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Let me ask a hypothetical. At the moment we're in Topeka, Kansas. Our home is Minnesota, near Minneapolis/Saint Paul. Say we wanted to get home under load, not instantly, but in as direct a fashon as possible. =============================================== Now that sounds scary Phil. You can...

Hey Star Call Bobby Snyder at Fyda. I talked to him last week and he said there is a guy with a company that has all the parts ect. There number is on the homepage. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Sometimes the obvious gets overlooked, or an assumption is made on one post within a thread. There are 52 posts within this thread with three complaining. On another thread, two complained out of 13 posts. Additionally, of that number, not all currently drive for them. So, based on 65 posts...
