    Money Maker?

    I can't say for certain it was a FECC rig. But that was my first impression. It was not a FedEx ground, freight, home delivery or original FedEx letter. I don't know what an express truck is and I don't know what a FedEx Supply Chain logo looks like. My point was not to try and identify what...

    Money Maker?

    A couple of weeks ago I spotted a FECC tractor trailer leaving the westbound I-94 scales in Minnesota. I was going the other direction so only got a brief glimpse. The tractor was a 3 axle Freightliner with an OEM sleeper. What caught my attention was the trailer. A 28' reefer with lift...

    Love those directions

    Panther's canned directions are from post office to post office making them useless. Most of their customer's directions are good and usually amended by drivers. As for the phone numbers provided, I have had several that were disconnected or said that the extension was unassigned without first...

    Panther bashing at truck stops?

    I got a vinyl coat from Con-Way after 7 or 8 years. I think the name and logo change were already in the works so they began dumping their supply of obsolete coats. Its water repellant so it makes a great rain coat.

    Daves Post something to think about:

    Broom, I the commentator made that assumption based on what you wrote, "... I received a call from my stock broker..." A stock broker is a person that buys and sells stock. If I write I received a call from my diesel mechanic is it much of a stretch to assume I own a diesel engine? If I write...

    Hey driver you have a flat tire...

    Wash your truck! Someone wrote in the dirt on the back doors "Please tell me I have a flat tire." This is a variation of the old "kick me" sign stuck to a person's back.

    How do you decide what loads to accept?

    I would refuse it! You mentioned the Ambassador Bridge and that the delivery is just across the border. I assume the consignee to be located in Windsor or nearby. Why does dispatch have me crossing at Niagra Falls, yet only pay me mileage for crossing at the Ambassador Bridge? I don't need a...

    Pro Bill

    Pro stands for progressive numbering. This is usually referred to as a pro number. Panther calls their delivery receipt and load a pro. And assign a number to it. Most LTL carriers assign a pro number to each shipment. This includes a bar coded sticker that is attached to the freight and...
