    Panther Rates on their own banner ad tells the sto

    RE: Panther Rates on their own banner ad tells the Well if you assume, yes I used that word and I know what it can mean. Then forty percent of fleet owners rate of $1.35 is real close to $0.54 per mile or a dime less than the going rate. That would be eighteen percent less than the normal 40/60...

    Panther Rates on their own banner ad tells the sto

    RE: Panther Rates on their own banner ad tells the If they sit for a week 200 miles from freight, that could be the reason they average 3000 miles per week. Good teams must be real hard to find if an owner has to put up with that crap. But that 44 cpm seems about a dime short unless they are...
