    What is the website to find available Panther loads online? Not backhauls! I'm mean Panther dispatched loads; from what I understand you can find them yourself and call in to request to be put on a load.

    Experienced solo driver looking...

    Straight truck automatic or a cargo van. I am experienced and currently with Panther. Will run hard and I dont take home time. No hazmat or canada. The last week I worked I did 1600 miles in a straight truck before my owner sold it. I can easily average over 1000, given the miles are offered.

    Lower fuel prices

    It won't happen without pro-active action. Do we have to write congress? The gasoline companies sure wont lower the prices on their own. $110 for a barrel of oil as of the last price increase. A week long strike by the truck drivers will surely bring notice. the larger cities like newyork...
