It has changed little from it's basic design except for the fact that it's now being tasked with serving multiple high public exposure markets. Something it cannot and will never do all that well. It will continue to limp along with the usual bad press incidents with parking lots overflowing with backed up loaded trailers and boxes piled outside covered up with tarps. But will it change? Not a chance. Why? It's highly profitable compared to overall industry margins and Fat Freddy will gladly trade off all the bad components surrounding Ground in exchange for those good margins. The only thing that might provoke change  would be overbuilt capacity combined with a steep and long duration recession.</p></blockquote><p></p>
