    Transflow app..... (for smart phones)

    It has worked with Panther for a long time. I've used it with my computer for almost 4 yrs now and my phone almost a year. The code is PTWT. You never need a coversheet to send anything just the code. Once you have it set up with your phone or computer you never have to put in the code again...

    Tornadoes in Texas

    I saw another video with a panther trailer next to the interstate in the grass. Not sure if it's the same trailer in the video above. It's amazing how it just picked up the trailers and threw them around.

    FYDA Freightliner Columbus Ohio

    I worked at the Pete dealer in OKC they payed all techs by book time. Wheel seal 2 hrs if you did it in 1 hr or 4 hrs you got payed 2. And the shop charged the customer the book time not the hrs that were worked on it.

    Good versus bad

    Well i don't have a personal experience in this issue. Since i have never been a driver for a owner or a owner for a driver. But from talking to people on the road. ( I try to talk to who ever will talk to me, and help them out any way i can. If they don't already know everything in the world.)...

    what are your priorities

    I do smoke and my co driver does not. I never smoke in the truck. Whenever we stop i always get out. Sometimes only smoke half one then back on the road. But thats fine with me. He dosen't want me to smoke in the truck and i respect his wishes. I can't say i would quit over it. Just adjust to it.

    FSC-Why don't companies pay 100% of it to us?

    Our avg fsc is just a few cents lower than yours. But rpm for all miles is 1.31 only a cent less than your truck. Thanks for posting your numbers Bruno. Its nice to be able to compare to another truck to see how the year was going. Guess i'm not doing too bad since i don't get the fleet rate...

    where can I get a tvale truck

    I totaly agree with you on this one. But if you have 3 or more trucks you can get the fleet owner contract and get the higher rate. I think it should be straight across the board for everyone. Fleet owner or not.

    Is it just Panther ?

    Very good point Zoli. But no matter how bad a place is for one person it might be good for another. I have had my complaints about panther but have also talk to them about my complaints. But there will always be drivers out there.

    Is it just Panther ?

    Everyone that is leased to panther knows they base all loads at 47 mph. If your a single driver expect that load to be swaped. Just because the load is under 1000 miles does not mean its a decent load. You have to look at how much you make on the load not the miles. I will admit i get tired of...

    Not Happy like many of You

    Scuba i totaly agree with you on this. And almost always its the dispatcher that makes the mistake and counts it agianst you when they shouldn't. You just have to double check every time you turn down a load.

    Heathcare Bill Passed

    Ok just one question. Do i live in the United States of America. Or the United States of Obama? Seems to me like he does what he wants and not what the people want. Not like the bail out worked. What makes him think this is going to work. :confused:

    Not Happy like many of You

    In the 2 1/2 year i have been with the cat i have never taken a load that didn't make me money. And i have taken my fair share of short loads.
