Is AA fiberglass over plywood ? I was in a parking lot one night looking at a Cascadia. The sleeper sidewall had a 4 foot split with plywood sticking out. :eek: It looked like the roof cap was cracking away from cab, also. Maybe the guy had done some off roading ? It was a fleet owners truck...

What size/make sleeper are you in now ?

They've been filling those trucks with teams for years. So they must be big enough for some teams.

The owner of Mayfield is on here. Bruno. Expeditors Services is very accessible. Soo, why not call both and get the straight facts. Add that to the answers you get here.

Both pretty good options. :)

I suggested combining his first two threads and he was offended. What has he learned in two years at Panther ?

Older types ? Drivers or vans ?

I'm not sure he knows what he wants. Start another thread Can Someone Help Me Figure Out What I Want

For you, free concert tickets, once per quarter. Miss Kat is the type of driver I would need to have a chance. Walmart hired about 350 drivers last year. They had 13,000+ applicants. Probably because a first year Walmart driver averages $76,000 per year. I listened to a guy from Martin...

One of my retirement home choices has a beautiful 52 x 96 barn built for semis. 14x14 oh doors, etc. I've often thought that when I retire I should try expediting with employees. Curious as to if I could afford it. Would I attract seasoned, veteran teams ? I do know I would require every...

There's the answer... Offer people payroll, benefits, and fill your seats. And reap the benefits of forced dispatch. My father had to work hard and smart to afford his union drivers. The job was important enough to them that they showed up, worked hard, and were safe. People stayed 20 plus...

I agree with Bill. I read this, but also have no questions as I am not looking for a job. Most people that should be here just start a new thread. Something like " I've been reading for years. And am ready to make the leap. " Then they ask questions that sounds like they found the site an...

We do a lot of 500-800 milers overnight. Since my darling wife drives the first 500-600 the joke is she often wakes me with "We have 100 miles left. Ya got it in ya ?" In the 90's I left Roadway, making $72,000 a year with killer benefits, because I couldn't sleep in the sleeper. I've been in 3...

The 17 minute 30 minute break ends with EOBRs. Is that for carriers that pay book miles instead of practical miles ?

I often hear "one size fits all" can't work. How screwed up could they get it if they tried different rules for different classes ?

Call Panther.

I'm getting my popcorn early on this one.....

Some companies need drivers. Good companies want good drivers. The best companies want the best drivers.

Generally by the time you get to an LTL you understand trucking. It's probably better pay and benefits than you're used to. ( my Roadway bid in 1996 paid me $72,000 per year, for a 6 day week then a 4 day week.) I've heard of Fedex Frt drivers ar $100,000 per year. So, there's nowhere to go to...

Notanewbie will let us know. It'll be interesting either way.
