I guess that rumor is better than the YRC rumor Judy floated at contract time in 2013....the article says land acquisitions (closed T Force terminals)..

Yup I can hear it now..."we need you to accept this below market offer to stave off TFI."

And TFORCE can hear “due to the acquisition of ABF!”

I guess this could mean SOR and 381 may soon become Canadians.

We might, eh...

I guess SOR will be looking for a place large enough to accommodate his cousins.

We're doing THIS bullshit again?

And HEY: This is COLLUSION amongst LTL companies. They know that if any one union company makes serious gains in their contract, they're all gonna have to pay up.

This :: is ****ING RIDICULOUS.

Tfi loves to own land and terminal s. They hate leased facilities. Their union contract is up for negotiation.so I wouldn't expect anything drastic till that's done. It seems like they like smaller facilities.

They sold off most of the truck load companies they own. So cash isn't a problem

 

[Toliet Paper]

Well if the rumor is true before they bought us they went to most of the hubs and inspected them. There'll be suttle signs.

They intentionally put it out at contract time. "Don't ask for too much, or we'll be forced to sell."

It's 2013 all over again.
