about how fast they go in our neighborhood....oops....UPS wins !! Now you know why the traffic sucks !!

Usually FedEx here does a lil better job getting it there in one piece, and I prefer 'em.

BUT the last time I mailed out a Muncie I sent it FedEX ground to South Carolina. Two months later it arrived, via UPS in Denver. Luckily some honest people who didn't have any use for a M20 called me (I always put my info inside as well as outside), and mailed it to the correct person in SC. I paid 'em and thanked them profusely. It must have gotten mixed up in the terminal, but how it was sent FedEX and arrived UPS I'll never know!

I think the middle pic explains your situation completetly !!!:D

I always try to use FedEx before UPS too.
A few years ago I was doing winter work for RPS, before FedEx bought them, and would pull trailers from the Twin Cities terminal to Mauston WI and swap with a driver from Chicago and come home. I was waiting for my truck from the windy around 1:00am on a nasty snowy, slippery night. I had already called the Chicago dispatcher, cause he was late. As I was standing in the truck stop watching for him to come down the ramp, I saw 2 cars skid out of control near the bottom of the ramp and bang into each other.....sure enough, here comes the truck with my trailer behind them and jack-knifes his rig to avoid the cars. I wasn't a happy camper when I called dispatch and informed them of the situation and was told to run mine on thru.......Chicago's bad enough when the driving is good....on a crappy snow day, it sucks !!!

We have just the opposite here where I live...if you don't have it shipped by UPS, you might not get it at all. The closest fedex hub is a 45 minute drive, so they bring in drivers from all over...they are constantly lost and I have even had packages not delivered to me because they said my address did not exist. One thing a lot of people don't know is that fedex will turn around and ship a lot of their items through UPS...I used to work at UPS and saw fedex boxes shipped through there all the time.

I love the honesty of the right hand pic!!!

My experiences with Fed Ex are rarely good, they are inflexible and half the time stuff never shows up, or it's all jacked up when it does.
I recieve shipments of equipment for jobs I'm doing all the time, different carriers regularly. UPS is hands down the best most proffesional group in my experience. Sometimes I get big shipments from frieght companies, don't even get me started on them, morons :mad: .
