    Amazon "Prime" trailers that I see on the road look like owner-operators are pulling them.
    Why don't you get some road experience, then later look at that or driving for an owner-operator that is contracted to "Amazon Prime."

    I saw 2 sets of new Volvo daycabs in piggyback setups today. Both sets were headed south on I-81 between Wytheville and Bristol, VA.

    Guess what colors the lead tractors were? If you said Amazon dark blue with the Amazon "Smile" logo on the air shield, you would be correct.

    I thought of this thread when I saw them. They may not be on the road just yet, but they are surely getting them ready and doing it quickly.

    I doubt the owner ops are doing that well, at least here in California. Most of the megas have started to take over the Amazon stuff.

    Keep in mind if you work in a Amazon facility throwing boxes you are being monitored on productivity very carefully. One big clue is that there is a Ambulance with crew on site waiting. Baltimore's Amazon had several thousand. They just burned off several hundred because they cannot throw packages at a certain few hundreds per hour all the shift. So they are fired and replaced by another who hopefully can sort those packages fast.

    Keep in mind Amazon is relatively new, and I think they want to have the whole earth revolve around Amazon from Cradle to Grave.
