    Where's the Panther freight?

    No I didnt move. I had been sitting in the same spot at TA since the day before and had been in the tv room inside for half of that time. Didnt start my clock until dispatched to go get the load 12 miles away. Still had 12.5 of my 14 when leaving the shipper.

    Where's the Panther freight?

    Yeah probably so. If I averaged 50 mph i could have made it with some time to spare. But the dispatch in there driving their computer chair knows better than us you know, the stupid ones behind the wheel.

    Where's the Panther freight?

    No they were supposed to have me meet another panther truck and crossdock with them but it broke down. Ground flight came to the rescue but I didnt understand the cross dock since I had plenty of time to get it delivered. I mean I could understand if i delivered in a couple of hours and was out...

    Living in CA as a truck driver? Good idea or Bad idea?

    Its probably good if you driver for a mega carrier hauling general freight. When I pulled reefer trailers for prime inc we always came out of california with fruits and veggies. Alot of food to move from up there. In expedite my experiences with california were horrible and probably wont go back.

    Where's the Panther freight?

    I was running solo at panther for a bit and was offered a 460 mile load. Drove 200 and had 7 hours left and they cross docked me to put it on a Ground Flight LLC truck. No clue why. That was just how things are run at panther.

    Starting out Brand New to the business.... Please Help!

    Well I think what he means is without a sleeper many carriers may not even look twice at bringing you on. I have seen some companies website that the equipment requirement involves a dot approved sleeper. From the sound of it you are looking at a local delivery truck. Good if you can lease on...

    fed ex CC newbie nightmare....please help

    I think the op is paying fuel and giving drivers 40% and fuel surcharge. That is why she is stating she shouldn't give them the surcharge and another reason she isn't profitable. 40% is the going rate for fleet drivers though. --- I am here: http://maps.google.com/maps?ll=36.747128,-91.887354

    Baby On Board!?

    What happens if the baby needs medical attention and you are under load? I'll bet many companies won't even consider you for employment when you tell them the idea. I'm sure shaken baby syndrome would be an issue as well. I know have headaches from all the bouncing down the road. --- I am...

    Any idea what could cause this?

    Lately I have been getting dizzy and kind of shaking and I'm fine if I eat a pack of crackers for a little bit then it hits me again. This happens whether I'm hungry or just ate doesn't matter. About 10 minutes ago I went to the restroom and urinated blood and had a burning sensation. My side...
