Hi everyone, I know it has been a long time since I have been on here but I just wanted to wish everyone a Happy Thanksgiving! Take care and be safe.

It is with a heavy heart that I am saying good bye to driving our straight truck. Jim passed away on October 27th from a massive heart attack. I am not sure what I am going to do but I promised Jim I would never go on the road without him (he was very protective), plus it would not be the same...

When we left our house on Wednesday night, we passed a Panther straight truck going North - now I know what you are thinking, what's so strange about that??? Well, let me tell you.... We live in a little town just off of Route 92 in PA and there is nothing out that way! Between Harding, PA...

Jim and I would like to say good bye to everyone at Panther. We have decided to go with another company that is more specialized and has fewer trucks. Before any thoughts, enter anyone's head, that this move is because of something that happened at Panther, it isn't. We feel we are able to...

After reading the posting about the April 1st shut down and how the Cattle haulers are hoping more trucks will follow and the couple of articles on OOIDA, I can't help but wonder, how many driver's on here would be willing to park their truck for a few days? And I am not talking about blocking...

I would just like to thank the Elite dispatcher's for all their help on Tuesday night, when Jim had to take me to the ER. They went above and beyond to make sure everything was taken care of so we did not have to worry about a thing. Once again, thank you for all your help and concern:):)

Why do some driver's feel the need to ask for a 1st out with each and every load? We have heard of driver's asking for a 1st out, with a load that is paying over 1000 miles, just because they feel they are going into a bad area, such as Laredo and Dallas. And some driver's are actually getting...

Since we are sitting at home already, we decided to call it a year instead of taking a chance of dead heading 100's of miles to get back home for the holidays. Just wanted to wish every one a Very Merry Christmas and a Happy and Prosperous New Year!! Be Safe!

We will be heading over to the Golden Corral for dinner. Anyone sitting in Laredo is more than welcome to join us. We will head out about 4:00 Central time. You can bang on our truck or just post here and we can finalize the plans. Happy Thanksgiving everyone!!

The next council meeting is coming up, have you sent in your suggestions and/or concerns to your council reps? If not, how do you expect anything to change? Maybe if we all ban together, things will change. So take a few minutes and email your reps!

Hey Steve and Jamie, just wanted to welcome you to Panther. Hope you enjoy working for them as much as we do.:) :)

I am sure this has been asked before but could not find it when I did a search. When ever we run into other driver's, it seems we always get on the subject of "home time". So, my question is, how long do you stay out for before going home and how long will you stay home?

Alright, it seems we all have something to complain about - no matter what company we work for. And sometimes it seems that no one is happy so I would just like to say a few things. Yes, there are things about Panther that I do not care for - hopefully the new council can help with some of the...

U.S. to Require Passports for Nearly All By BEVERLEY LUMPKIN WASHINGTON (AP) - Nearly all air travelers entering the U.S. will be required to show passports beginning Jan. 23, including returning Americans and people from Canada and other nations in the Western Hemisphere. The date was...

Who else got picked for the paperless logs and what do you think??

When did Panther change their policy that you no longer need to have the HazMat endorsement?? Also, what is the detention time pay these days?

Has anyone been made to go back to Canada because your paperwork was not cleared? When did this change come about anyway? We picked up a load 15 minutes from the Border,called the broker to see how long it would take to get the paperwork cleared. Had the shipper fax paperwork, got the...

We were involved in an accident in Feb with a kid that had minimum coverage on his vehicle - which only covered the cost of repairing our truck and gave us a few dollars to cover our lost wages and added expense. After talking with many owner ops, we were told that our insurance should actually...
