No research done by me....but I speculate that it is because Fed Ex is more efficient because it goes by air too and not by ground only. So the inference is it takes two UPS trucks to deliver the same as one Fed Ex? I saw alot of this type of painting on trucks on the French highways.
I did find something that maybe qualifies as a reason for the interesting spectacle in my posted picture. Supposedly, a lot of UPS trucks have been breaking down these past couple of years, and at the same time FEDEX has been adding 75 "clean air" trucks to their already- very-large fleet. Hybrid seems to be the new face of transportation, NOW even in large haulers!
My story is that these poor UPS trucks are being taken to a junk yard due to their "out-dated-ness". Isn't it sad that they go to their death in the belly of the competition?
I like life. I like to read in front of a fire. I like snow. I love learning. I like chocolate and sour patch kids. I hit the snooze button up to three times in the morning.
I fell onto the top of a whale once while boating in the Puget Sound. It was cool until I almost got hypothermia. It was February.

that is pretty weird. Can you follow up on why? (did one buy out the other?) probably a quick google search would turn up something.
