    From The Desk Of Andy Clarke

    I don't see that happening. Why pay expedite rates when LTL will do, unless you are willing to haul both loads for LTL rates. Panther and ABF Freight are two separate companies and I don't expect much intermingling of freight. I do see us getting some of their guaranteed TimeKeeper™ shipments...

    Panther purchased by ABF?

    I don't know about ABF reading this stuff, but the NSA certainly does.

    Panther purchased by ABF?

    You're welcome! Just pointing out that LTL carriers owning Expedite companies isn't a recent phenomenon.

    Gas Vs Diesel

    You're welcome! I assume your interest stems from owning a Sprinter and a slopbucket gasser. Another way to look at these numbers is the gasser at 16 mpg would cost .20/mi. while the Sprinter at 22 mpg would cost .16/mi.

    Gas Vs Diesel

    I was hoping someone would crunch the numbers I provided in post #9, ummmm, Scott. Oh, I forgot, he's lazy. I went back to 2008 up to yesterday and here are the results per year for the average price of gasoline vs. diesel fuel. GASOLINE--DIESEL 2008...

    Game of Thrones uses George Bush's head in beheading scene..

    Hey what do I know? The Wizard of Oz and Sister Act are movies and movies aren't real. The "head" is from a television show and television isn't real and we are discussing this on the Internet and I'm pretty sure the Internet isn't real.

    When you charge your house battery do you use the 12 volt power source on the Honda or run a 110v battery charger?

    Panther purchased by ABF?

    Why doesn't your "bigger picture and longer time frame" include the fact that the largest expedite carrier at the time was a subsidiary of a large LTL carrier? An expedite company that went by the name of Roberts Express was once a subsidiary of Roadway Services. Also during that time frame...

    Game of Thrones uses George Bush's head in beheading scene..

    I don't see the George Bush likeness in the far head. The middle head sure looks like Jack Haley as the Tin Man from the Wizard of Oz.

    Turnover Rates

    And a poke in the eye is better when compared to a poke in both eyes. I'm guessing now also, but my guess would be O/Os are less transient than company drivers. It costs an O/O money to pick up and move to another carrier. Why thank you, but it was intended to be a rhetorical question. I...

    Turnover Rates

    Not bad compared to what? I believe Landstar's TL divisions are 100% O/O and fleet owners. 30% turnover looks good next to an industry wide average of 90%. But, no distinction was made between O/O carriers and carriers with mostly company drivers like Swift. How does 30% turnover compare to...
