In the past year Fedex Ground delivered an empty box of pullies to scott, took almost 3 weeks to deliver KEvins Diff and this week Fedex fails to deliver an important document. Hello DHL!

RPS was bought by fedex, which is still ran more or less the same way.



DHL has been around for a long time, in foreign countries they used to be the only way to go.



I remember seeing only dhl in baja in the mid 90's, ups wasnt around and even though they would take pacakges they rarely got them where you wanted them.

We use DHL here in NZ. Really quick and reliable. Have Fedex and UPS, but nowhere near as big as DHL.

Yea I think they did, I think that's why they ended up with so many trucks.
