Thawk,Swift is not the largest trucking company in the world.That "honor" goes to UPS,with Fedex #2.Swift is in the top 10.DD.
The question is who really lies more: & I'll bet it's the Black Cat. Then again, I just noticed a beef on this site about FECC farming out loads to the red arrow trucking co.

If they were bragging about being the biggest company that would make me not want to lease onto them.

DD... maybe they were talking about OTR company... don't know. Just saying that a lot of ppl have learned that being in the biggest, individuals get lost in the bigness.

RE:
Comes down to this, and I agree with Ark. If they are the 'biggest,' then that means they don't care about the drivers as much as they used to. I hear it all the time about how companies use their claim to be the biggest and best to try to lure people in. Problem is, with expedite companies, that usually means they're encouraging brown-nosing and competition amongst drivers.

Simon,fedcc has farmed out loads for years,how do you think they can keep a customer if their load doesnt get picked up on time,when their drivers say no,someone has to haul it,or the customer will be gone,but they only use certain companies

But the question was (in another thread) why they didn't ask their own drivers first. Is it possible that they make more money by brokering out loads, rather than pay 63%(or whatever it is) of the tarrif to their contractors?

Talk about jumping off topic....the key word most seem to be missing here is "expediting" company.... not just company.

What's the Largest Expediting Company?
If we are talking about the largest exclusive expediting company, well Panther may be the one but if we are talking about the largest company that has a presents in the expediting market (with real market share that is), it is by far FedEx.

i really don't see why it matters. if you are comfortable where you are it shouldn't matter what another carrier is.

Hi Redytrk,
I tried all the Panther dealies on this site that I could find.
I saw that they claimed to be the "fastest growing expedite company".
Would you be ok with pointing out where they claimed to be the "largest"?
