I think it's so sad that the government has to become involved to make people play fair.

As always, I am very grateful for this forum to exist and all the people on here who are willing to share information for the benefit of all. I remember reading awhile back, people discussing/arguing whether this business needs to be 'learned', or what it takes, or how long, or whatever. There...

Thanks for your replies. How much would an apu/generator cost (in USA) of the size we'd need? Any recommendations of a good place to buy one? New? Used? Ebay? Camping store? I assume there are different sizes? Or are they all the same? What size would be needed by a C unit with a tiny sleeper...

Can you experienced folks recommend an apu/generator which would be good enough for a 16' straight truck (C Unit)? Also Dave, when you mention 'wise fuel purchases'.. what would an unwise fuel purchase be? I know this doesn't make sense.. I don't know enough about the truck/fuel/equipment side...

Do a search on 'drive by' postings.

I'm really confused, why aren't more Panther people doing this?

Fastrod, I thought you were independent?

"Barnett said the only possible charge stemming from the accident appears to be a misdemeanor count of failure to secure a load, if it is determined there was some kind of human error. The sheriff's office plans to examine the tractor and trailer." Bad choice of load to not recheck the...

The way I read it, they have to disclose to the person paying for the fuel (us), all the charges. I don't read it as they have to disclose to the shipper, how they pay it out. Keep in mind that not all carriers are as generous with fsc and information regarding loads as your carrier probably...

I've got to admit, this is something that really irks me about this forum. How are members to speak freely about their issues when their carriers are listening in? And if people can't speak freely, that lessens the value of this forum, at least in my eyes. Sorry administrators, this is a great...

How do manage to be with both at the same time?

My opinion, but I don't think you could hope for both of those goals to be reached in the same month, especially on a consistent basis.

I'm sorry to hear that too Kyreax. Best wishes for success in whatever you've decided to do instead! I'm sure whatever it is, your thoroughness in checking out your options before leaping will serve you well!

If you are going to be a driver for an owner, you could go in a straight truck vs a tt, maybe you would feel more comfortable; or approach a driving school and pay for some more on-road experience with them with an emphasis on backing up to docks.

Ha, you've got a great point! Wouldn't even need to tie em outside, as long as they could be counted on to bark!

good choice (i think?), cuz you can always find another owner with panther if this carrier doesn't work out for you.

Sounds like, whever you are, you might find some half decent kidney dishes. hehehehehehehehehehe Oh man, I kill myself :D

I gotta admit, the 'real' Montreal Smoked Meat is AWFULLY good too :)

Are you Canadian also? It just seems we are so behind the times. Nothing being sold on eBay (to speak of) from Canada, the insurance company is behaving as if I'm asking for something REALLY unusual when all I want is a simple, pretty standard quote, there doesn't seem to be much Canadian...

I just know I'd be firing someone today if I were the owner of the tire shop (unless I were the one that authorized putting the wrong tires on in the first place, becuz I didn't have the correct ones in stock and didn't want to lose a sale, which I wouldn't do in the first place!)
