YRC's largest competitor coming your way!
Looks prettier on the grass... C'mon.. We all know that.

They should have joined the Teamsters when they had the chance.

We thought re-branding Yellow and Roadway to YRC was bad. Al least there's a logical connection there. Con-way becoming XPO Logistics is a much bigger stretch IMHO.

Worst idea ever, taking 2 huge companies and re-branding, 3 different times.
Probably lost customers just by brand recognition alone. Freight still marked for Yellow and/or Roadway today.

The new name will be XPO Logistics

What a Con Job

 

[Bubba78]

Relax everyone just relax XPO Has very deep pockets and there CEO is not a greedy dude like welch and Pierson and he isn't robbing from his employees to to have a bloated salary yes there buying stuff left and right but they can afford that when your salary is $495,000 (XPO CEO Bradley Jacobs)a year hell he makes less than Pierson I think is a good move they probably will do very well with Conway and I seriously doubt XPO will be beating down the door to want the drivers to start giving back money and vacation

 

[wongway]

does XPO have a page on T.B. ??? if so I can't find it ?? maybe should start one for XPO ??

Talk about a buying spree $Bill would look like a miser compared to these people.

Hey, where is Bill at these days anyway???

 

[sundrop03]

But what will Con-Way do with all those new Freightshakers???

We will haul freight until they're old Freightshakers.

WOW , BIG News !!!! changes coming for Conway soon too then !!!!

This will be the wave of the future. Conglomerates buying LTL and truckload companies, lowering wages, benefits, and pensions and there is no Union Companies now to drive wages, benefits, and pensions back up. Everyone better enjoy what they have today, because there future will be worth less than their past from a financial perspective. This is happening in every industry and now the untouchable trucking industry see's just how it will be infiltrated into their industry. The non-union companies did not get to glote long about the downfall of the union companies. Oh yes, by the way, the day will come when the price will be right and the Cogdin's will let O.D. go and they will suffer the same fate, eventually.
