As far as Panther there relocation system is only good in certain instances. Depending on the region of the country you are in it can be useful to call dispatch supervisor for relocation areas. Seems to work for us pretty well. Make sure you call the right region. For example; if you are in FL...

Good idea to drive together first to make sure you can live with each other 24/7. We are a team and it works great for us. If you are getting married the pay split shouldn't be an issue. If it is, one of you would have to be paid as a employee. There are some other posts on here relating to...

RE: WiFi or Sprint Iwas wondering on the sprint phones if the 3G phones are really that much faster than the 2G ones. Ours is a 2G and is pretty slow.

moving or staying depends on what company you are with and how many of their own trucks are there.

From what I read so far, I agree, KW is the way to go. I have a 300 with a cat and have had good luck with it. It is rebuildable but not as a in frame. Also resale on a KW is alot higher than a sterling. ANd don't forget, Sterling is a Frieghtliner and their service is nothing to get excited...

before I forget, we are cooling and heating a 123" sleeper with this unit.

I had one of these units several years ago and was not impressed. They may be ok in a small sleeper...72" or less. I had a 72" with one and it couldn't keep up in any extreme temps. We have a genset from Jacksonville Fl. with a roof air. What a difference. That unit will shoot ice cubes even in...

they were an excellent company when they were Roberts, but now they are just a joke. Why would you work for someone who is hiding information from you. Think about what they are hiding from you that you know about. Then think about the things that you don't but may find later. Like I said...

Sounds like a inexperienced dispatcher. Call contractor relations. They can review QC messages and that should take care of it.

We are with Panther and you don't always need a pager. If you have a cell phone it must have pager capabilities. In otherwords, it must accept text messages. Hope this helps.

For whatever it is worth....according to Tri-state they have severed their relationship with GM. I was told that they wanted their frieght hauled too cheaply. Tri-state was only giving drivers a $1.00 a mile. My personal opinion is that Tri-state might have had some coverage issues as their...

I agree with RichM. Everyone needs to back off the name calling & nasty posts. Everyone should realize we can all learn alittle something from everyone. Just remember everyone is a little different in their views and thoughts.

new owners need to review these posts and realize only a few are surviving long term at this business. Alot of luck, hard work, minimal bills, and most importantly, small truck payments or none at all will go along way to insure success.

This is a trucking site. You may occasionally have a profanity. If people can't handle it, they should not be on this site. If these (Christian people) can't handle something that small, they certainly should not be in trucking. Have you heard the CB these days.

The load we turned down was from St paul to Cedar Rapids IA. Later we got a load from that same area to SC. Glad we waited. Not a ton of freight coming out of IA

we are currently using a kycerra phone with software to use the internet. Kinda slow. curious on set up someone else has that might be better.

we were with roberts and when they changed to fedup we were not interested in all the game playing. Ran into a team in MN and they had been there for four days. Pretty sad if you ask me. We were there one day and turned one load down.

for what ever it is worth, the cummins a/c problems were tied to excessive vibration that developed over several months. Problems were seperate but numerous. Everything from cracked brackets, belt and pulley alignment issues to several compressor replacements. The one we had could have been...

should have mentioned that the truck gen is a stand alone unit. We have a ICT sleeper and the a/c is a roof mount. Good unit as you can be in Arizona's 105 degree heat and it is still throwing ice cubes!!
