    Panther Sitting at Truck Stops

    You will certainly have more freight hauling options in a tractor/trailer, but your parking, fast food drive ups, shade tree parking and residential neighborhood pervert cruising options will be severely limited.

    If I were a descendent of Alessandro Volta I would file a defamation lawsuit against GM for libel and slander of the fine Volta family name.

    Panther Sitting at Truck Stops

    I agree with Jenny but would like to add: in expedite there are currently, as an individual truck classification, more vans and more straight trucks per class than tractor/trailers per class. This being the case you would be more apt to see more vans and straight trucks sitting than...

    What does it mean?

    As a kid I got weather forecasts by decoding a blinking light. The Northwestern National Bank building in downtown Minneapolis had a 150' tower on it's roof with a large "weatherball" attached to it. Click this link, it will explain the light codes so you will have instant access to weather...

    Panther Expediting

    Call Panther in the morning and get an answer straight from the two headed cat's mouths. Panther calls this their backhaul program. Most drivers use this to get out of a slow area. Panther takes, I believe, 15% off the top for loads you find. All other loads are procured and dispatched by...

    Ragman posted a like button for all to use. You can use mine as I'm most likely through using it for the rest of the night, unless I come across something I like.

    Sorry Ragman! I didn't finish reading the thread when I replied to Scott's post. I like to pick on those Canadians!

    I have seen this before, only worded slightly different. I didn't know it was attributed to the Most Reverend Jeremiah Wright. I'm not a Jeremiah Wright fan, but I've got to admit that's a great line!

    Thompson Reuters News: Panther Expedited Services is for sale

    Gold level? That's funny! In the precious metal race I can't even make the pig iron level. Is pig iron even considered a precious metal? The $1000 came from Con-Way Now to sign on with Panther and to make sure I'd leave them once and for all. I was with Con-Way Now for 9 years and prior to...

    Headlight longevity

    I have found just the opposite to be true. My Silverstar Ultras burn cooler than the Sylvania Xtravisions I was running to the point of not melting freezing rain and wet snow that accumulated on the lenses. The Silverstars also burn much cooler than the 55W H-3 bulbs in my driving lights and...
