    Considring tha YRC is the largest LTL carrier in the U.S... every LTL company has to gain from YRC going under. The companies that will suffer are the ones who decided to have YRC haul thier freight because they were offering 80% discounts. The LTL carriers are gonna continue to haul for the companies that stayed dedicated to them while the ones who went with the CHEAPER HAUL, beg for the ones that are still in business to haul thier freight. This in turn will cause shippers to pay higher rates due to the demand of hauling and not enough trucks to carry LTL!

    Do you KNOW how long it's been rumored that YRC is going under? Since I drove my first big truck, a bunch of years ago.
