    My wife just told me she read something about someone or a group of people buying UPS uniforms. I don't know the validity of this but just be mindful if this is accurate.

    Right where I want to be.
    If they aren't buying brown UPS trucks too, I'm not worried.

    Both here and in Colorado it is not uncommon for UPS/FedEx to show in rental trucks, even vans, they say Ryder or Budget on the trucks.

    Hmmmm.
    Just had a Fedex delivery...in a Fedex truck.
    I wonder who takes care of the maintenance costs on those.
    Still probably less expensive for UPS to do that than own.

    It was white with FEDEX on the sides.
    Might have been some green on there somewhere.
    I was more intent on grabbing the package than paying too much attention to the truck.:thumbs:
