What is your after tax net profit per mile hauling $1.32 loads ? I'm just guessing but I figure you need to drive around negative 2,000 miles.

All you need is some 6mil plastic and duct tape, till you can jam a piece of wood to keep the window up. Roll down windows are a luxury. Lol. I’ve actually done that trick with the wood more than once. Gotta keep rolling no matter what. $980??? WTF? Time to go junkyard crawling.Gatordude, FullMetalJacket, Iamoverit and 3 others Thank this.

I have a broken piece of pallet in there now, if I go junk yard shopping I’ll just be buying a new one next month any way, rolling them down is kinda needed for me when backing up with 20% on themGatordude, FullMetalJacket, Rideandrepair and 2 others Thank this.

Interesting video that showed up in my feed about amazon relay rates.
Any takers? In his opinion there are people hauling these.

Joking about the plastic. I had the same problem on my Classic. Finally got everything done. Drove quite a while with wood holding up window.FullMetalJacket, abyliks and 77fib77 Thank this.

It's just like the port roaches. In fact, I know many can haulers that talked about hauling for Amazon like it was some kind of golden calf.
These guys get suckered by being sold on volume. "Sure, each round trip only pays $50 but you can get 10 of them in per day" is how it's pitched to them.
Problem is they never get the volume they're promised and by the time they figure out they've been screwed it's usually too late to dig out of the hole they've driven themselves into.
There's a sucker born every minute in this industry and as more people are waking to the scam they have less to prey upon so they started importing new victims from outside the country.TheLoadOut, Magoo1968, Gatordude and 3 others Thank this. -

So now that I’m in the yard and got everything all untangleled the window motor is working so it’s just the track I have to replace, that’s only $80,
edit: $180 with new window welting and the strip seal for the glass, still better than being coldLast edited: Apr 8, 2025
