    One of worst fears realized

    Good to hear that they found the problem. It's irritating and unnerving when you know that there's a problem but the mechanics can't find it. Now, if the problem happens again, you will have a clue as to what it might be. I can relate to the "asking a million questions" I do the same thing...

    Panther holding back O/O's

    We've also had the opportunity to watch dispatch in action. I have to say, that's a job I would NOT want. Just watching them, I felt like "a one legged man in a butt kickin contest" and I didn't see any favoritism.

    Mapping Software

    Pjjjj, I can't imagine trying to use an online mapping program with the advertisements and such. You're good! ;) We've used both Streets and Trips and Delorme, we liked Streets/Trips better. It's just a matter of personal choice. We just bought Streets/Trips 2009 with the GPS. So far it's a...

    Tipping

    Yes, we leave a tip if the service is exceptional. We've also made a point of telling the manager when the service is exceptional.

    In truck scanning

    We have the Neat Receipts scanner, and it worked great until.....VISTA :mad: Now I see from the website that they are coming out with another upgrade (which of course costs) We now use a Canon flatbed scanner, and an HP Deskjet Printer. Doesn't take up much room.

    What it's like at Panther

    After all this discussion, it still comes down to finding a company that fits YOU, your equipment, your business plan, your goals etc. If Panther is working out for you that's great, it may not work out for someone else.

    In truck scanning

    Turtle, I am running Vista with the Transflo program and so far no problems that I've found. I will probably still use the truckstop scanning most of the time, it's just easier to me, but I like the fact that I now have the option if we aren't near a truck stop that has scanning. As far as...
