Some of you know we have been checking into the expedited world of trucking....after seeing that you can actually time travel like this.....we R convinced...SIGN US UP!

How slow is slow? We don't mind sitting at all, especially since we have rarely had that opportunity while running over the last 554,000 miles since December of '05 on this dedicated account at 86 cents + FSC per mile, paid pre pass plus, great BCBS Health Insurance for $172.00 month each, all...

We don't go home, we sold it so we could truck for several years before we buy another place. We figured it would be the best way to make the most money and get ourselves in a better financial world that will enable us to have a brighter financial future. We have made our truck a home, when we...

As some of you have noticed we are in the middle of a 3 week break from current lease trying to determine what Expedited company to lease with, assuming we make the leap from our current average of 86 cents a mile @ 6000 miles WK dedicated routes. One of our tasks is to include all of our costs...

In general with a Tractor and '53 trailer can you tell us an overall average weight, in general? That is interesting that you get a lower pay scale if the load is smaller, I assume that is all agreed upfront w/ fsc and all? So even if there are no smaller trucks avail in the area you get the...

As you can see we are being thorough by researching past posts in hopes it will help us make the right decision whether to expedite or not to expedite, that is our question.... I had to LAUGH OUT LOUD after coming across this post, while this fellas idea is ok with the green theory and all, if...

Damn...looks 2 b an intricate business especially as an experienced OTR driver investigating getting into expedited, I been reading all the posts on this thread....guess it's natural that my heads spinnin like a spinning top, is your head spinning, if so, does it spin on a daily basis?

Whoa.....just when I thought the Dream Team will B OK 2 make plans for an early February orientation date @ Panther you guys get me all riled up again.....what 2 do, what 2 do? Put some mustard in my shoe! PS. We don't feel better, in fact we don't feel so good....LOL

Yes, we are looking at all options and comparing pros and cons on each....very intricate details to sort out, so many opinions to filter through is making this process difficult for us. By the By: DIESELDIVA = Great Screenname!!!!

It is pretty easy to detect who of you is giving us real and sincere information and those of you blowing hot air into a 44mph south wind..... then there are a few of you who don't have obvious experience regarding what we are asking about, or seems that your experience was bad for you for...

WOW! Phil Madsen & Diane Madsen....WOW! GREAT STUFF! My wife and I are 30+ years touring musicians, we started trucking 3 years ago, bought a Big Truck 13 months ago and are just now investigating the Expedited Freight side of trucking. We also sold most everything except musical and...

EXCELLENT POST!!!! Tell me one good reason anyone should not keep their truck in great working shape, legal and safe to help ensure lives and property on the nations highways, not to mention their own & their family's lives. "It takes money to make money"

Thanks people, guess we have a lot more research to do before we jump to Panther, the more current Tractor Trailer Operators that are with Panther is probably our best source. As far as doing it on our own, your post is vauge and lacking details of how we might run more freight in 2 days than w/...

We have been unsuccessful at getting any information on leasing to Panther with a BIG TRUCK, looks like most of you expediters here with Panther are of the Sprinter Van, Straight Truck variety. Would any of you have at least a tidbit of info on what we might expect leasing our BIG TRUCK to...

After downloading Pic, did you hit update profile at the bottom?

I truly believe the Colts KARMA caught up with them for laying down for Tennessee Titans, and the fact that they were probably thinking ahead to the next week thinking they were gonna play my Patriots......they got what they deserved and they would not have had a prayer against the Patriots this...

Same happened to us from July 4th 2006 weekend oil change/ service done at the T/A just east of Kansas City, 1500 miles later heading into Birmingham, AL our truck siezed up, lost power and we immediately pulled over on the shoulder just in time to see the last few quarts of oil glopping out, we...
