    I don't know how big they are. But Jubilee was mentioned in the Feb 24 trades, online version.

    I think that plate fees are due by the end of Feb, so I am guessing that next week will be full of bloodshed, big and small.

    If it's Shippers Transport, their website says nothing about it.

    Hate to tell you this but Werner is weathering the storm. They have been debt free for years and have given their shareholders a profit for many years. There may be other carriers out there in trouble but Werner isn't one of them.

    Late last year, and this is rumor, Swift supposedly could not make their interest payment to the bank(s) I have no proof of this but it was being said.

    From what I understand ..

    YRC is about to default on the loan which was funded by UPS and then UPS will take over the freight base from YRC it is only a matter of time ..
