Hi roaddawg, have you thought about going with a sprinter or maybe driving for a fleet? You will have to start with a company that does not require experience. I believe Panther accepts straight truck drivers with no previous experience. Look on eo' s home page there is a link to them. I am sure...

HAHAHA BigCat :D I thought about going out and getting a van or two also since they are relatively cheap and we could just buy it outright! They talked me out of it to so now I am back to procrastinating on the straight truck! lol :p

Great I am really happy to hear they are still the great and honest company they have always been. That is one thing I always loved about es. Honesty and the friendliness and helpfulness of the staff. They were always a company drivers could depend on. I have given their number and recommended...

Yeah ok david spoken like a truck owner! You just keep telling drivers that. If you can get them to buy it more power to you! ROFLMAO

Good company very nice people. They could do better with the up keep of their trucks. I have heard they have gone to a 35/65 split with their drivers with the driver getting 35 instead of the usual 40. That combined with the like vehicle upkeep would have me taking a closer look at availabe...

LOL I have found when the motel wifi comes up it usually ask for room number and name. I usually put in my first name and room 215 as most motels have a room 215, it usually works roflmao. :D

Panther has no issues with paying their contractors that I've heard of. Panther is a very good carrier. Have friends that are drivers for them. Their only issue is they are not getting very many miles. Averaging around 1000 to 2000 a week. Got to understand they came out of the big truck, were...

Both Tri-State and Panther are good carrier. Both have cons and pros. The best thing you can do before deciding which carrier to go with is to call a recruiter from each carrier to see which would be the best fit to match your personal needs. Remember what is a good fit for one driver may not be...

Fkatz, if you read the original post from what I can understand he is saying he is a driver that does not own the vehicle that he is driving. It is my understanding you can only claim milage if the vehicle belongs to you, not to someone else. Would not the actual owner be the one that gets to...

If you are a driver that drives for an owner operater (you do not own your truck or van) you do not get to claim milage. You can only claim milage if you own the vehicle.

Sounds like you lucked out. Much better your going to drive for Expediter Services. Very good people to drive for. My husband and I drove for them for a year and a half. Only left them because we were offered a rolling condo. Love having the kitchen sink with me but miss the wonderful people at...

Anyone that cannot succeed driving for Expediter Services is going to fail regardless of whoever they drive for. Expediter Services is one of the best expedite companies there is. We drove for them and can honestly say they are a straight up company and are ALWAYS available to their drivers, not...

OK, leave it to me to ask! What is DOD clearance? :rolleyes:

Well, I think I would have to take the advise of my friend. Difference between you and me is that I know trucknlace and her hubby personally. So I know they are a team that does not exaggerate and will tell it like it is. They are the type of people that would do anything for anyone! Give you...

We just had a similar issue. We got to the pick-up and found they had 12 pallets. Only 10 pallets fit on our truck. It was looking like we were going to lose the load. The weight was only 5000 pds but the issue was the number of pallets. Somehow, they did manage to get 11 pallets on and sent us...

She knows because Doug (her hubby) use to drive for them. You won't find anyone more honest then Sally Ann or more nice, thoughtful or considerate! Actually I think in all the time I have known her this is the first negative thing I have ever heard from her so I'd say you can take it to the...

heeheehee. . . means 'unnecessarily wicked'!. . . :D
