Well OVM let me tell you a story and really this is the Gods honest truth.... I am sure as truck drivers we will always be able to find something to talk about!

Bruno you are not with FedEx anymore can you not give it a rest and move on to your new company? I was under the impression from an earlier post you have pulled all of your trucks and placed them at Panther? I have always understood that the Macro 55 was just that a Macro 55. I have never...

Very easy to go give a click!

Was it for the better as I cannot imagine their attitude getting much worse at having to work to unload a truck?

You sure have that right it is an addiction. This older couple we know we’re always talking about all the things they were going to do when they retire which they are pretty close to doing. Last summer she had a heart attack and was out of work 21 weeks. He said in no time all they could talk...

One thing about Jim is you can count on him to make you laugh in the middle of any thread!

redytrk this is another reason why I think it is cheaper to use a dash mounted GPS and not your computer. The constant vibration going down the road is hard on hinges and hard drives. A GPS is very cheap compared to replacing a computer.

Mayfield shall we go back and read all of your posts since you left FedEx and how you want to change Panther to have FedEx macros, have FedEx less than 75 status and list goes on from there. You seem to be the one wanting to change Panther to meet FedEx standards on many items. Leo brings up...

So Lawrence does that mean you actually understood the post by IRT?

That is how I migrated to my new computer was have a copy on my external hard drive of the files I wanted. I know back up to my hard drive often. I have heard really good things about Carbonite just have not started the service. I agree this is not the best time to buy a new computer but I...

A paid for truck in my opinion is the best truck on the road! One of the problems out here though is almost all companies have a rule on how old a truck can be when signing on. Now once you are on and as long as that truck stays in sound condition you are good to go. That can be a double...

Right now it appears to us to be slower than normal for all companies. Grit your teeth and bear it and let’s hope for a better new year.

Coco, What do you call your creation and can we use your screen name on the recipe?

Jim you are such a fun pain the behind!! And that is on topic!!

Why do you think this issue had not been brought up time and time again and at this point FedEx does not see the value of an automated system. It had been mentioned many times about the issues brought up by the Panther council and Panther makes no changes. FedEx and Panther are the same...

The difference from running 55 and 60 cannot save you hours in delivery time. Load miles is 550 miles and you average 55 mph the load will take ten hours to deliver, if you run 60 mph the load will take you approximately nine hours and 14 minute which is a savings of about 45 minutes. Load...

Slow in MIN also and COLD!!

There are two different things you need to know and do. First you need to know your cost per mile (CPM) to run the truck. The OOIDA worksheet is a good start and then tailor the spreadsheet to meet your needs. When you get a load opp look at the bottom line which is your total miles and...

Our customers also log on and see where we are at but that polling can be several miles off.

That middle of the night trek can be tough as well as first thing in the morning! Here is some of what I like though: I love the cool crisp air on my face and a nice warm coat I am wearing. I like the warm mittens, scarves and hats for winter I enjoy the crisp nights and the great sleeping...
