I think they use each other as partner carriers, so that might be why.

OK, guys, the most obvious new name would be United Panther Service. That's too easy. Any other ideas?

OH BOY HERE WE GO AGAIN ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS MENTION BOTH NAMES IN ONE SENTENCE AND SOMEONE THINKS MERGER HOW GULLIBLE CAN PEOPLE GET

I wouldn't touch this subject with a 10 foot pole after the information I received from two very reliable sources went south a couple months ago. Don't believe anything until you see it, and then question what you see.

I know how you feel, Packmule. I've come to believe that there is no such thing as a reliable source, only reliable information.

Here we go again. This is all I'll be hearing from other drivers every time I pull into the J. "So when is Panther and UPS mergin?" guess they'll be called....PANTUPS??? Just wondering.

Whenever you hear about the Panther/UPS merger, unless you hear it on Wall Street Week or read it in a million plus circulation newspaper, just tell whoever it is that's interesting and then forget it. Asking about it will only perpetuate it and it's almost guaranteed to be false.

If this does go through - I hope they put me in charge in developing the new name.

I gave this alot of thought:

United Panther Service? no
Panther Services United? no

Oh just make it short and sweet! PU

Yea, PU - that makes sense!

If it happens (I doubt it because the market is drying up n a sense) the name would be United Parcel Service Expediting

 

[terryandrene]

The name already is "UPS Express Critical"

Perhaps a composite of key words in UPS, Landstar Express America and FedEx Custom Critical

 

[greg334]

What they already named their service? What was that contest on the box of Fruit Loops all about then?

 

[Falligator]

How about P.U.P.S.E.C.? LOL
