[QUOTE="OKRuss, post: 3662025, member: 41777"] Lee for the win! Keep in mind folks, there isn't a sorting facility in OK so anything shipped via FedEx from OKC is likely going to Memphis then coming back. Always been that way except over the years they've added a few sorting facilities in other states like CA. Any package going from/to CA will stay in CA and not go to Memphis. Express is much more reliable and more expensive. Ground uses contractors and those are generally less competent than Express drivers. But, if you want something shipped that's bigger/heavier, you'll have to use Ground. If your package goes to 47 different cities in 6 states before getting to you, it's most likely you selected the least expensive option which is generally SmartPost which means FedEx picks up your package but then handed off to USPS. Your tracking will show going in/out of USPS facilities. FedEx IT employee 17 years. Best friend is an Express driver with 32 years. Another good friend works the airport ramp and been there about 25 years. [/QUOTE]
