[QUOTE="bbsam, post: 581125, member: 22662"] Ok, Ricochet. I know you are not impressed with service from ground. I realize that you and MrFedex and others around here (myself included) can tell all kinds of horror stories about certain ground drivers. Should you ever want to take a ride on the wild side and see the real story, I could probably arrange it. These are not DHL routes. And one of the reasons customers use ground is not the "we don't care when it gets there". The fact of the matter is that in alot of instances next day service can be had through ground. You seem to be very good with numbers, but it seems that information you could get about on time percentages for ground is not something you are interested in. So for all the stories about how "this package was lost by ground for eight days", I can probably find more interesting ones. Like how a certain gun manufacturer in the midwest switched to ground because certain packages (hand guns) kept coming up missing from Chicago hubs. How do I know that? Customer told me so. Think FedEx is going to lose that shipper (300-1000ppd) back to UPS? Probably not. [/QUOTE]
