The New USPS Trucks: So Much for Looking Cool While You Deliver the Mail

Oshkosh will build the new mail delivery vehicles, but they'll run Ford engines and EV components. The upcoming Next-Generation Delivery Vehicle, aka, the United States Postal Office's new mail trucks will be Built Ford Tough in some ways.

The Next Generation Delivery Vehicle is a visual abomination. But it'll probably be better at its job than a Corvette.

I'd say I ran 12's in a mail truck (which is like pushing a billboard through the wind)

here's a faster one for ya:

The first one is the sleeper. Second one is definitely a dragster. Still funny as hell though.

So, I wonder why people stare at stop lights when I play that engine idle sound @ 30 ...?

Looks like they hired the same guy who designed the huge fishbowl window from the old '75 AMC Pacer! ?

The 35 year old truck they're using now has giant windows, no AC an no insulation between the engine compartment an cab an no floor insulation. I've handed people packages that sat on the floor an they dropped them because the bottom of the box was so hot. It regularly gets up to 120 degrees in those trucks in the summer when it's in the 90's out.

Why would a sunshield be needed on a vehicle that is being driven all day?

If you do a google search for "postal carrier dies from heat or heat stroke" you'll see it's not unheard of
