    We got correspondence to switch over one of our OEM customers immediately for the same reason.

    Another rep was asking if we had anything with YRC they should be expecting after they file.

    Luckily it was just the one OEM and they're pretty strict about using the carrier they want, even after we warned them for years about their quality.

    Sucks the drivers have to suffer forsure.

    Our UPS Freight/Tforce driver mentioned they did their contract around the same time so it was the same situation. Glad it'll be resolved quick though. I can't imagine the shit show overall that would result from a strike.

    I had also heard on Friday that Dayton had removed YRC from their alternate carriers list sometime in the previous couple of days.

    If you're ever near Rhinelander I can show you where the alleged jump that I hypothetically test suspension changes on is :D

    I was thinking it would make a decent snow wheeling rig but only if it's regeared to handle those big tires with preferably better than stock cooling as well. Most likely just a show rig though.

    It's a Dodge, of course it's a show rig.

    Spent most of the day working on the CR-V. New brakes front and rear (rotors and pads) plus the 3.5 hour kicker-right front hub replacement. Done.
