    Yes sometimes they will offer a paid empty move to a board with better daily average. It doesn't cover all the gas but it sure helps, always ask driver relations for that option before moving fully on your own dime. Depends on the day and how many other units available on the boards. Good luck

    You deadhead out or EM out... Don't sit on boards with only one daily load out, especially with Panther

    Panther Deceit

    Problem is short of reading on E/O no one would know how flawed Panthers system in regard to "solo vans" really is...without learning for yourself the hard way after being out from orientation with stars in your eyes. After the stars fade, the team preferences and cheaper contract favoritism...

    "What they left out of the Panther manual and orientation"

    Yeah the "Spotlight account" truly is most humorous... Not one that I had been "selected" for came off without need of major Advil afterwards! Many turn into some real tales.. I started simply laughing and saying no to them unless theres some serious miles involved.

    "What they left out of the Panther manual and orientation"

    The below is what I learned within my first 90 days, its MY take and experience... a sort of guide for "newbie" solo van drivers with Panther. If you add this info in with what your spoon fed at orientation and whats written in the driver handbook you will at least go in with your eyes wide...

    Thanks Again

    They need to send out a treasure hunting map and a crystal ball to all the drivers now then. That way we can know who will call and where we need to sit. One day I'm told it's by position, next it's location, another there will say computer picks. I must be the only one who has issue with this...

    Thanks Again

    Well I've been informed it's not a first in first out operation any longer. So basically Throw board position right out the window it's now truck closest to shipper wins the race mostly. It's bad when five miles or so of deadhead they don't want to pay costs you another day sitting.

    Thanks Again

    Knoxville... They pulled out days average again by location to shipper apparently since I only moved up one spot since last night. So over it.
