[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 2331869, member: 58386"] Question. You keep referring to 2 competitors. I count 3. UPS,Fedex and the good old United States Postal Service. Not to mention smaller ones such as DHL OTD and fast growing Amazon. Furthermore, what is the main gripe you hear out of people these day? The COST of shipping an item. The only thing they care about is getting an item in one piece to the right place at the right time and at the lowest shipping cost. That delivery guy is not at one place long enough for the consignee to form much of an opinion of that delivery person. Even if they are there at the time and that continues to be less often they're entire focus is on that box. Believe me I don't envy you as an IC/ISP given the :censored: storm coming your way. If you are so enamored with Xpress and idolize it the way you do then sell your routes cut your losses get out of it and go to work for Xpress. Keep in mind that if G was to be folded into X they wouldn't owe you a dime for your contract or your trucks, meaning that all you would have is a bunch of worn out trucks which when sold might recover 10% of what you owe the banks at the time. They are one of the fastest depreciating pieces of equipment known to the U.S. economy. The best friend you have going for you at the present time is just that.....time.
