[QUOTE="BMWMC, post: 1074646, member: 37461"] In the end its really come down to pricing power. UPS has raised its rate without appreciable volume lost. It running a far more efficient system than FDX. Its cost are competitive and its service is unmatched. I've talk to many a FDX ground drive and to a person are only doing the job until a better one comes along. Nobody see the job as a career and there customers know it too. UPS's number one advantage are its driver who take ownership of there routes. When asked in customers surveys UPS driver are the biggest reason people choose the service. Its the above and beyond attention to customers needs that FDX ground will never have with there current business model. They compete on price point period. Wal-Mart thought they would rule the world with there "always low prices" model. Target, Macy's, and many other retailers do just fine or better sell up rather than reaching DOWN. EOM. [/QUOTE]
