[QUOTE="bacha29, post: 3354221, member: 58386"] We talked about possibility in the past and for those who stayed up on this matter I commend you The question is how long will it take to build it out nationwide? One way they could speed the process would be to strike deals with XGround contractors when their contracts with XG expire making them free agents. For the very first time this could give contractors some bargaining power when it comes to a fair contract. Given the likelihood that Bezos will want all the easy in town stuff leaving the other 3 with the boonie boxes it may in turn make it difficult for the others to continue to offer as generous a discount rate as in the past. It will take time to get regulatory approval but given the current deregulatory environment it may not take as long as in the past. If Bezos were to quickly become a major competitor grabbing market share as fast as he can handle it XG contractors can expect to be treated in an even worse fashion if such a thing is possible up until the time that they have a market of their own that will allow them to negotiate with other shipping companies. That day can not arrive too soon. [/QUOTE]
