Just a couple of things of clarity. Panther(by itself) or Panther1 are not related to PantherII. They used the latter because there was two owners. They now are owned by Fenway Partners. Panther did not go through a name change for litigation purposes. They are now actually just Panther...

Based on your limited information, I would pursue expediting. Even more so if your wife has a desire to drive. If you go solo, then it is a toss up. HOS will be your biggest obstacle if going solo whether it is TT or expedite. I would strongly advise driving for a fleet owner until you really...

I think you are right Rich. Fedex has said they are pursuing the LTL market. Panther seems to be concentrating on exclusive use shipments. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Let us know how the system works. My only concern was locations for service. Is there just one or several? Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

I haven't been with Panther the whole 22 years, but I look forward to the new aquisition. That will bring their fleet up to 1900 trucks. That is alot of leverage on larger accounts because of their coverage. I don't believe this will be the last aquisition either. Davekc owner 22 years...

Should be a good thing. One less competitor, more coverage and more customers. I don't really see a downside. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Folks, lets not get this turned into another locked topic dealing with the same issue. There was a time GPS wasn't known by many. Today, pretty much any freight company is aware of them. Over the last several months on EO we have had numerous people trying to broker loads off there to drivers...

I agree with Rich. You should go to a CAT dealer or certified CAT mechanic. They will have to use a computer to ensure that it is done correctly. Average cost is $250.00 to $300.00 Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

What are they saying is your exposure? If it is the full deductible, I would fight it. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Roof top systems are by far the best as far as staying cool. We have used durotherm and carrier. In the winter, they are marginal at best. We have added ceramic heat for the extreme winters. I would advise the Ateam to follow suit. Roof units work ok until the temp drops under 30 degrees. A...

I would advise using a broker or a carrier to obtain freight. Why? Because both are licensed. There are other methods, but I wouldn't believe they are reliable. UShip is full of folks trying to ship items cheap. Usually furniture or ebay purchases. I wouldn't think any of them would have...

RE: Here is one The one I seen up close didn't have a upper shelf. It was all open in the front with a sleeper. There was a wall farther back to seperate the freight from the sleeper. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

You can use the home page right here at EO. Right hand side listed with other carriers. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

Terry is correct on location. It is possible that they weren't available on that model year. Tell them to reference a serial number off a 05 or 06. I will PM a serial number to you to use on a truck that has them. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

RE: Americans with no ability act-Congressional Ac You guys are too funny! Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

I believe transport topics said the average was three. That is taking into account the biggest to the smallest that is licensed. If people want a exclusive relationship, then visit the freight company or the customer. Anything out there is fair game as far as I am concerned. Davekc owner 22...

AMERICANS WITH NO ABILITIES ACT - CONGRESSIONAL ACT 2006 WASHINGTON , DC (AP) - Congress is considering sweeping legislation, which provides new benefits for many Americans. The Americans With No Abilities Act (AWNAA) is being hailed as a major legislation by advocates of the millions of...

Bike and rollerblades? I have a Panther team that just unloaded and are on there way to the Pilot. They are requesting a large pizza with everything. They thank you in advance for your efforts. Davekc owner 22 years PantherII EO moderator

If you are with Panther, you can obtain loads from any source as long as they get their 15 percent for insurance and authority. There are a few exceptions, and those are from deadbeat companies that can't pay their freight bill. And like Hawk, I will on occassion book a load for someone else. I...
