    Amazon here near Seattle is busy and has been for a few months now, Around Black Friday through new years is when it’s insanely busy, amazon takes on a lot of new owner ops for that time to keep up with demand, better rates than normal too. Plus amazon loads are light rarely go over 20k lb, I would say I pulled about 10-15k on average.

    It's because Amazon will send you 5 small items in 5 separate boxes that are each large enough for all 5 items.

    I'm surprised that the greenies haven't gone after them yet. Must be paying them off.

    How many good looking trucks haul an amazon trailer? Exactly. 80% are half duct tape.

    I absolutely love amazon prime. I buy so much stuff. I just ordered an air hose fitting for $2.77 and it’s gonna be at my door tomorrow. Crazy. Do I feel bad? No. Jeff Bezos makes enough money.
