[QUOTE="MrFedEx, post: 1074377, member: 12508"] A lot of FedEx contractors were going belly-up in the 90's and even later in some cases. I can recall many ads in Craiglist, local papers, and elsewhere offering Ground routes and equipment at fire sale prices. Why would anyone sell a profitable business, much less lose their ass? One big part of the scam that hardly ever gets mentioned is the pressure to buy the vehicle(s) through FedEx, which presumably gets another cut that way. I know that bbsam (and others) operate whatever they want to, but when I attended a Ground sales pitch meeting (informational purposes only) it was expected that you would get a FedEx spec vehicle...from them.
