    I will answer also....lil may. Owner contacted me to drive for him for his cargo van. But if you want to get hooked up with a owner and not lease a vehicle on with Panther then put in your app online on panther expedited and go to recruiting then click on fleet driver and put in your app. But word of warning if your going cargo van make sure to have your hazmat or passenger endorsement they require you to have your commercial class c licence. I didnt know that now im having to scramble to get mine. Im going for hazmat because passenger requires a knowledge test and a skills test.

    because Panther told me over the phone that I would need a CDL class C license by getting a passenger or hazmat endorsement

    O.K. . I got it now . You can't get a Clas C CDL without some type of endorsement . The passenger is much easier to get and you don't have to wait a month for approval .

    This is true but in Ga you have to take knowledge test and a skills test for passenger endorsement which I have no access to a bus or a passenger van or anything like that.
