Keith Graham says times are not good, but they have been worse.
"I was down to two deliveries a week at (auto supplier) Pullman Industries in South Haven," said the truck driver at USF Holland, a unit of America's largest trucking company YRC Worldwide Inc. "Recently, they went back up to four deliveries a week, which is good news."
"When it comes to the auto industry, Michigan could do with a whole lot more good news like that, " Graham, 47, said.
Those extra deliveries were related to new product lines for General Motors Corp, officials said.
But if good news like new product lines at a U.S. automaker is rare these days -- the industry has been decimated by shrinking market share for Detroit-based automakers GM, Ford Motor Co (F.N) and Chrysler LLC -- the same can be said for YRC and USF, which YRC bought in 2005.
