    1. Finally, a mail truck that looks like it was designed after 1997 and not by a toaster manufacturer.

    2. I’m not familiar enough with mailpeople’s routine so could you explain?

      I’m guessing you don’t mean standing up while driving?

      Is also doesn’t waste a ton of gas while stopped and is better for the environment.

      It’s good for people and the environment.

      Therefore, naturally, the GOP hates it.

      Seriously, it makes them RAGE.

    4. NGL, I’d love to own one of these. Without the logo, of course. It looks silly, but I’d bet it’s comfy af to drive, especially for a tall person like me.

    5. I thought this truck was ugly as shit when I first saw it, but if the whole point is to make the delivery drivers’ lives easier, then who am I to have an opinion

      Actual mail carrier here

      These take up a much larger physical footprint that most post offices are not built for, some offices won’t be getting these at all.

      We just need the OG Grumman to be modernized, its much more nimble and easier to navigate, especially in tight/narrow streets

      I’m all for this, mail people are extremely important and this is a good move. I just hope that they’re at least as safe as the old trucks

    8. I was thinking that the heading was referring to mail carriers who could now stand up while driving.

      Why did they specifically go with the fore engine design? Why not just make them a box? Seems like a lot of wasted space up
      Front that could be used for tight spaces in cities or turn radius.
