    Costs of Leaving Panther?

    wvcourier, do you own the van? If so, you should be able to log in with your owner number on the owner website. If you are having problems logging in, call Panther. If you are driving for an owner and filing out delivery receipts properly for dry runs, then maybe the owner is keeping the...

    What was your highest revenue year in Expedite?

    I will have to look it up. My guess would be what ever year had the highest average fuel prices. I get a flat rate per mile and a fuel surcharge that fluctuates with the price of fuel. So, the higher the price of fuel, the higher my yearly revenue. There have been many years where I drove...

    Stupid Road Signs

    One more. I delivered to the USPS St. Louis BMC a few weeks ago. While getting jacked around I came across this poster in a glass case in the waiting area outside the receiving window. It lists all the rules and regulations a driver must abide by while on USPS property. The very bottom line...

    Stupid Road Signs

    Usually it is the billboard company that puts up messages like that, with the thought being a message on a billboard is more attention getting than a blank billboard. Was this the billboard you saw? WARNING: Do not open this link if you find a 4 letter word made up of the following letters...

    Looking for a lease purchase opportunity

    It is well and good that you should wonder. Wonder long and hard about who put the 200,000 miles on that truck. Was it one owner who drove it and then sold it to TST? Did TST buy it new and now, 200,000 miles later this poor orphaned truck is looking for a new owner? I have never done a...

    Random drug screen testing?

    It is a D.O.T. rule. I have been with Panther for six years and have had two randoms. Nine years with my previous carrier netted two randoms. It is suppose to be a luck of the draw thing, I never got the call while under load and never when sitting out in the boonies. I'm in a van so it...
