    yes they do have elog for S/T and T/T. Drove cargo vans for them for 2 years and left mid July 2011 and would go back. Panther was a good company for me. I would love to drive a straight truck but only solo and most fleet owners want teams from what I found.

    It almost always been where owners want teams in ST T/T but lately I been seeing ads where cargo van owners what team now,I know people in the expedite field will say there not much money in a van unless you drive it your self the owner.Solos don't really work in expedite that's why its called expedited because loads need to be deliver within a shorter amount of time,in a team truck you can cut that time in half but in solo you can't.As for Panther they seem to be a good company like I say before there some not all but a few shady owners out there that do rip off there drivers.Also I think if you got a CDL,you should do straight truck or T/T if you got a class A.

    That's not that easy . You might apply to owners and ask for contact info for current drivers . They don't have openings often . The good drivers stay with them .
     
    Lil Red Head Thanks this.

    I'm a good driver working with (not for) a good owner. I'm not crazy 'bout coughing up the name of my owner but pm me w/ why your considering Panther and I might help ya out.

    Seems not to many owners willing take drivers or even teams from Florida.Also seems there no owners from Florida either!Three weeks going on 4 weeks now and still can't find a owner who needs a driver!I'm even considering moving back to PA if I have too,rather move back north anyway.Any Panther owners out there with a straight truck in need a driver or team???:biggrin_2556:

    all the one I've driven were autos, but they were newer trucks.
