Mars22 Just do the math, if you average $1000.00 a week you would make $52,000 gross a year. So if you average $1500.00 a week you will gross $78,000.00 a year. That is 326.09 miles per load IF you do 5 loads a week at .77 a mile and a .15 FSC. Now if your at Load1 you could do more, as the van...

Lawrence my Grandpa would have to disagree with the old OTR driver. He would say just because it's a straight doesn't mean we don't move freight. Also I think this about a van drivers. Yea, I'm in a Van, but I can get there faster than a big truck can. Most companies don't like to pay for a full...

Did you ever find a driver?

26 since 1995 as we just bought six more trucks last week.

Some customers will not load trucks that have lift-gates because they can lock the truck into the dock.

I would have to agree 100% with Greg and Jim on this. If you want to team drive a straight truck would be better. You will have more room, make more money over all and by happy. As a fleet owner we have never even thought of owning any vans. It's just not worth it to us unless I drove the van...

Mayfield Express will give some money to a driver that will help out with this. PM if you find a driver willing to take the freight.

Panther Expedited Services CEO Andy Clark will be heading back on the road November 28, 2011 for a good cause. This is the third year that Clark has got into a Panther Expedited Services truck to raise money for the United States Marine Corps League and Toys for Tots. Clark and Lyn Brumfield a...

Greg you do know I'm not mad at you, just busting your chops as you do mine. I know how you Italians are because I'm married to one. LOL Tricia gets mad at me when you and I bust each others chops. She just don't like it.

Good point Dennis. When our drivers have a problem with a dispatcher at Panther (which I can count on one hand since we been there) we call driver relations. If the driver was on a empty move then was offered a load when they was 200 miles into it. The empty move stops at 200 miles and the...

Well, you should have called driver relations before posting something like this in a open forum saying that Panther is crooks. I take it you will be looking for a new company to drive for since you think Panther is so BAD. This seems like a drive by poster.

So you did the loads are being paid for the loads just not the empty move? I think you should post that it's the empty moves your saying your not getting paid for, not the loads.

So your saying they are not paying you for an empty move not the loads. Just call Jeff Garra and his staff and they will pull the phone calls and Jeff will make sure your paid for the empty moves.

Your story has a lot of holes in it. I been with Panther for three years and NEVER had a problem like your saying. To much is missing from your story. Did you pickup and deliver this load? Was this a load that you was pre-dispatch that the customer cancelled? Was you late on the delivery? So...

Mike your post really hit home with me in regards to reading everyone posts. Happy thanksgiving to you Mike and all the EO readers.

Mayfield Express would like to wish everyone on Expediters Online and their Family's a safe and Happy Thanksgiving. When everyone is sitting down for their Thanksgiving day dinner please take the time to remember all the Troops all over the world that are away from their family and love ones.

You mean just you Greg. Did that make you feel better Greg. Why do you feel the need to defend yourself, you don't have to prove anything to me or anyone else. As far as what we do you can think what ever you want as to what we do. I know what we have been doing since I started back in 1995...

Happy Birthday Cheri and may you get a load home to make your birthday a great one.

A minister parked his car in a no-parking zone in a large city because he was short of time and couldn't find a space with a meter.Then he put a note under the windshield wiper that read: "I have circled the block 10 times. If I don't park here, I'll miss my appointment. Forgive us our...

Got my Expediters Online T-shirt in the mail today and it's a very nice shirt. I would like to thank you Lawrence McCord for the very nice shirt. I would like to buy a jacket with that logo on the back. Would you let your members buy one from your printer?
