    I'm curious from Swift drivers and anyone else who has heard or had any rumors run around about the company being under new ownership?

    Im a member or OOIDA and one the other fellas had a discussion topic on the FB page about it?

    No im not interested in driving for a ripoff company but was just curious about this happenin.

    Well, then do your own research.

    Because I won't waste your time with my "ripoff" answer.

    Ciao.

    Could Swift be up for sale? I hope not, as they are a stable company. Any sale of Swift would be a bad move in my opinion.

    You tell em Injun.... :biggrin_25514:

    There was some news about public shares going up for sale again to raise cash - so in effect they are for sale, at least part.

    They just went public again last month.
    So I cannot see them really going up for sale.
    Maybe jerry is putting more stock out on the market. But he will still have the majority shares.
