    West Coast Runs Reconsidered

    If FedEx is going too purchase more trailers,and give those trailers freight before contractors regardless of dwell time.They should be ready for the backlash of contractors looking for greener pastures.Maybe FEDEX wants too go to company drivers only,because there surely won't be any...
