    I haven't noticed any changes in my routine. I am glad I am with a bigger, more diversified company that can take advantage of many types of frieght. If frieght from the southern border slows down, my company should be able to keep me busy.

    Conway was actually the purchaser! They had an official announcement on Dave Nemo's show on XM. Not a bad deal if you ask me, sounded like a wise merger, and with CFI's frieght base south of the border, the should do just fine.

    Kinda funny how Conway bought CFI with CF's cash.

    I think Conway has a thing for the letters C and F.

    If you go back one step further its was the $280M (In 1981 Dollars) from the sale of Freightliner to Mercedes that funded the start up of Con-Way.
