Tude, We've been in ONE Speedco that looked like that, same type of service that you described too, but I can't for the life of me remember where it was! (old age) It's too bad they all can't be like that.

Heck even I'd look beautiful in that "mirror"! Haha Looks awesome!

Pelicn = Pelican (seems everyone else wants the A) Since I collect them, that's who I've been forever:+

Phil, There is distortion in your picture because the picture itself isn't perfectly square. You can get rid of your distortion by making the avatar 48 by 32 I think.

Thanks for posting the pictures! It's interesting to see the well put together trucks vs the ones that look like they'd break apart. I would have to say as far as sleeper size goes I would go as large as I could and still be able to haul different sizes/weights of freight. I wouldn't want a...

Haven't seen that one before, but with that single axle back there, and that huge sleeper, could they haul more than a postage stamp? The truck we were in had a single axle, and a 16 ft box and we were pushing it hauling a little more than 5000 lbs.

We used the "over the seat" organizers that are found in the truckstops to keep stuff organized. As far as the cabinets over the driver and passenger seats, we used the small wire baskets found in the office supply stores. Space and organization are always a challenge, and I'm like you, I hate...

Ohhhhh boy that's a true statement!! Thanks for the laugh!

Actually, this is part of a larger protest that's going on in cities around the country. Landline and Steve Sommers have been talking about it for about 2 weeks now. http://www.landlinemag.com/todays_news/Daily/2007/Apr07/040907.htm/041307-01.htm

>Secondly, but not mentioned, is the "D" unit is a 16' >reefer, that can only carry 5,000lbs. Correct me Pel if I am >wrong on that. Dave, yes you're correct but it's listed as a "B" now and yes it did severely limit what we could haul with Panther. Also, in answer to Babs.. "how long...

I didn't take your question as "wise***" :) Why not go with FedEx now? Ummm....I wouldn't mind but my better half needs a break from OTR truckin I think. LOL You know how men can be.....(runnin to hide now)

Doesn't this all boil down to going with the company that fits you? All of them have their problems there is NO company that be perfect in every way.

Charlotte, Unfortunately, we do not own the truck, otherwise we would make some different choices. Given our circumstances we do the best we can within the parameters we have. Ooops....I forgot to add...great post above about the brokers Charlotte... Jaminjim....it means we are headed home to...

Cheri, you and I have had this Macro discussion before and I see by the results of my question....that it's still as clear as MUD! How can an informed business decision be made on information that is inaccurate? Panther's system is so convoluted that a twitch of an eyebrow can change your...

Hometime board has NEVER worked for us, neither has getloaded.com. We feel your pain....we deadheaded from Portland, OR to New Bern, NC just before Christmas after sitting in OR for a week. We too, did the "favor" and they assured us that there was the freight to get us back home before we...

Moot, we've had the same thing happen. The system just doesn't make sense to me. I was hoping that someone could give some reasoning behind it.

Had to send this one on to my son. He just recently got out of the Army...MP with the 82nd Airborne.:7

Hahahaha Thanks Moot! I really did need that laugh tonight :*

What I would like to know is, what is the point of having a limit to how many times you can check? Not that it's a smart thing to do, but if I want to deadhead farther than 300 miles, and I want to know how many trucks are there at a certain time, then what difference does it make to Panther...

Can anyone tell me why there's a limit to how many times you can check the Macro 8 (suggested reposition) with Panther? Also, why is it limited to a 300 mile radius from where you're located at the time? I just don't get it! The VRU was so much better!
