    I guess so. Because they were the older Volvo 670 single and dual rears.

    The team trucks are white. They're driven by UPS employees. UPS uses purchased transportation, but any vehicle with UPS on the side is being operated by an employee.

    On the 100th Anniversary in 2007 UPS parcel had a traveling history tour to commemorate the 100 years. They went around the country stopping at some of the larger hubs. They had several leased brown sleeper trucks doing the tour. I thought then maybe they would start going to brown for the team trucks, but I was told they trade them too often and since UPS leased them they would stay white.

    I might have to dig into those team runs a little. It would be nice to have some insurance and 401k. Most FedEx Ground contractors don’t offer any insurance and the ones that do it’s expensive and or just a basic supplemental. I do my own ROTH IRA but a 401k would be awesome to go with that and our money market accounts. The contractor we run for is some real good folks and I seriously can’t complain. But those little extra perks would be nice. I wish FedEx Freight had teams. But Custom critical and Ground are their only options. And us liking to go home at least every weekend, Custom critical is a .

    The ones I was talking about are these. Mannnnnnn I’m gonna have to look into them once the wife gets a little more time under her belt. Them and Old Dominion. Not sure with UPS but Old Dominion is hard to get on with in Tennessee. Rarely any openings. 419B3B51-0F3C-46B3-B5C1-DC13276997C2.jpeg

    Anyone that can let me know who I should talk to about those team runs, I’d really appreciate it and would probably toss a few $$$’s there way if I can get me and the wife in there.
