New to Expedited freight. Looking into Panther, but don't like the contract. Does anyone have experience of knowledge of Panther to share? I realize there are horror stories everywhere with every company; I would just like plain honest feedback.

I never drove for them but I was looking at them and was advised by one of their drivers he wouldn't touch them as a solo but loves running team with his wife and would not leave them. Basically the information I gathered was they are a big company so I shouldn't be surprised when I only get treated as a number.

I can speak on it from the standpoint of being a H/W team driving for a fleet owner leased to Panther. Would that help?

Sorry can't help if you are looking at it from the standpoint of being a truck owner or being a solo.

You might want to send Bruno a PM. He's a fleet owner with a fleet leased on with Panther.

What don't you like about the contract? A contract is a binding agreement between you and the carrier. If you've got a problem with the contract now, I can guarantee it won't magically get better after you sign it.
