    I'm Out

    Greg, we share the same first name. I spell my name with 2 G's. One at the beginning and one at the end. Spelling Greg with only one G would give you Gre or Reg.

    new dispatch system @ the fed

    This new system makes sense. I know I have turned down loads because I was given 30 minutes to make a pickup 40 miles away in Chicago traffic. This was probably due to time lost making offers to several trucks ahead of me. This system is definitely a time saver for the customer, dispatch and...

    I'm Out

    True! It is more about profit. Profit from interest earned and not paid. Profit from fees kept and escrow not returned. Welcome to the world of transportation! Step right up...

    New fuel program in Panther

    It seems to me that in order for this f.s.c. program to work Panther would need either a low number of owners enrolling or else 90% or greater participation. If participation was in the 40% to 60% range would there be enough money in the kitty to cover everything and leave Panther a buck or...

    GM 4500 Cargo Van

    With a GVWR over 10,000# I would image this van has dual rear wheels. GM is probably going after the construction trades market. A van is more secure than a pickup truck for storing tools and equipment and it should be able to pull a trailer with a Bobcat, trencher or other machines.

    New fuel program in Panther

    When Con-Way Now sold to Panther I had the option of staying with my original contract or going with a new Panther contract. I am still running under my Con-Way contract with the fixed weekly f.s.c. based on the weekly national average price of diesel fuel published by the D.O.E. In theory...

    Time Warp

    No I don't have OCD. But I do have clean hands. I just washed them, again! My problem, one of many, is I confuse easily. I can be reading a post a 10:00 p.m. E.D.T. and 5 minutes later somebody has posted showing tomorrow's time and date. Then I have to look at my watch and wonder how and...

    Time Warp

    I live in the Central Time Zone but when working I operate on Eastern Time or as Leo refers to it, Panther Time. As expediters the majority of us conduct our business using Eastern Time. I propose we all use the Eastern Time Zone here on E.O. After you read this post, please take a few...

    LoMax, that's it. Thanks Ark. I was joking about the Mexican truck market though.

    Wierd Western Star

    Greg, are you out west in logging country? Many vocational trucks are spec'd with heavy rated axles, larger springs and double frames. For the past few years Western Star has been offering a chopped down road tractor called the Low Rider or something similar to that. Must be aimed at the...

    Bye To The Cool People

    How right you are! Silly of me to think that would complete the series. Schizophrenia left untreated can manifest itself in the form of social isolation. Not being part of the "in crowd." Another symptom is delusions. Beliefs not based on reality, such as the belief that there's a conspiracy...

    Bye To The Cool People

    Unfortunately the very first Bobble Head in the E.O. "Expediter" series is unavailable due to legal issues. The original Head threatened to sue the manufacturer for libel and reproducing a likeness without permission. An agreement was reached and all of the Bobble Heads were destroyed. Except...
