Well I got up and immediately started back to work on my exhaust. The tracking had it from being delivered Friday to Tuesday and by the time I got finished its scheduled for Monday. Had I knew for sure I'd be in town today I would have been sitting down there waiting for the truck lol. Worst part is FedEx delivered to my next door neighbors as I was wrenching on the pipe install, stupied UPS/FedEx "Smart"Post service. Thanks though, I'll check that out.

that "smart post" service is the dumbest service I've ever seen. once the package gets from Fedex to the hands of the fumbling USPS for delivery all bets are off. only a government backed entity like USPS could give such poor service and remain in business. I get my neighbor's mail all the time. wonder half the time where my mail ends up. how hard is it to read an address?

Good job, now in the meantime you should remove all that orange stuff on your bike..............enjoy your ride !

Yeah. Poor choice of words I guess. Really meant that as in my head. Where I was thinking of going and how'd I like to do it. Did so and had a great ride down the scenic route of the Delaware River. Did just short of 125 miles and I lost count of how many times I found myself smiling when I heard those pipes growling along with me.

Yup. I drove for UPS for almost 5 years. Most of the stuff I dropped at USPS would have been easier for me just to deliver anyway. Unfortunately that's the down side of the more common free shipping.

10-4, yep they are gonna concentrate on the more time sensitive deliveries before the regular ground shipping. They need to hit their #s.
