XPO is not just a logistics company. Con Way drivers are in for a huge change. The fact is XPO own HRT and Pacer and haul goods to the ports of los Angeles and Long Beach. They aquired a french trucking company not long ago while there drivers in LA down to SanDiego and the Teamsters are on strike and Are suing Pacer and HRT for stealing money from there drivers.. What they appear to be doing is trying to break there Union Drivers and word is that they will sell off large chunks of Con-Way and there assests meaning there trucks.. They are not keeping any of Con-Ways Executives so I would imagine the sale of Con-Way Assets will commence first quarter of next year. Con-Ways CEO will remain for a time as an adviser which generally means in aquisitions like this that they do not want the rank and file to panic so they keep the CEO until they can start selling off the divisions of the company for huge profits.. If you drive for CON-WAY I would pay close attention as this is probably not your last stop on the sale wheel.

I really don't think the freight side has anything to worry about. The truckload side though..
Bob Dobalina and whip Thank this. -

The union guy surely has some inside connections and no interest in unnerving the Con-Way drivers...........
Bob Dobalina and FreightlinerGuy Thank this. -

oh no...the sky is falling...... (again).....
I'm sorry to be so cynical but does anyone belief that a corporation would spend upwards of 3.5 billion dollars on something just to part it out?? Especially when they currently own nothing like it?? Truckload perhaps will get the ax, but freight is here to stay!
There will be some changes....but anything different than the normal comfort zone can be scary......let's just enjoy the ride and see where it goes...after all, it's only a job, LTL carriers are hiring everyday!Bob Dobalina and whip Thank this. -
