Is the USF companies converting to the all white tractors as well ? I saw two of them the other day and was just curious.
 
If I remember correctly, I believe that the White tractors for both YRC and Holland are leased from Penske. Check the permit books.
 
We had the white ones at YRC, but they mysteriously had a brake valve problem right about the time the coo was put on hold.. Had heard through the rumor mill that Holland was getting the whites, cant say if Ive seen any white ones with the YRC logo, but sure do see white ones with the Holland logo on them.
 
The color is about $$$$$. The first batch of new sleepers had the YRC decals. All the new day cabs have the YRC Freight livery.
 
I have seen the new ones for yrc on the road and they are white too.. It's no mystery about the brake job Volvo did have a recall on them...

Al, White is a great color. Doesn't leave behind those telltale faded marks when the decals are changed, and the equipment is swapped between "sister" companies. Also it's the easiest to peddle when you have to liquidate, a fast wash job, new decals, POOF, you're TRUCKIN!

I sometimes wonder if paint "fade" will matter. IMO it is a survival question. I guess UPS has decided that two tone livery is not needed on UPS Freight. Now all their tractors are turning brown.
