[QUOTE="montecarlo11, post: 55693"] ok2bclever, i saw the info that travler put up. dont see how money or volume shows who is number one. I cant wait to see your spin on this one but your reaching again. Both UPS and the USPS have been around more than 70 years before FEDEX and DHL. tell you what, go to the UPS fact sheet and look at how much revenue and volume come from your ground operations, ok what % would that be?? please remember you now have competition for those packages that you didnt have before. cant wait to see how much more volume has been lost to Fedex ground. Fedex Express is by far and away the largest express shipper in the world even though they had to compete with UPS since day one. Now UPS has to compete with FEDEX GROUND in the same way. yea do they have alot of catching up to to? sure, but the difference is that Fedex ground has already started taking market share. The ground market is much easier to expand than the express market. Another issue that UPS has is that Fedex ground operating cost are lower than UPS, so they can charge less and still make more money per pkg. with that advantage that Fedex has now they can come down in price to match UPS in the express market to get back any customers who switched over to UPS to sacrifice service for a cheaper price. Dont take my word for it though, you will be able to watch for yourself. [/QUOTE]
