  1. While I’m not exactly a treehugger, why in world is USPS not going with an all electric fleet? Seems to me that these delivery vehicles would be perfect for battery powered.

    1. If you saw their delivery day you’d realize they wouldn’t get past noon without a full battery recharge. Those guys start early and work till dark or after.

  2. Typical federal contract bidding. Why not split the contract in half and see which trucks actually perform the best. Unless it has to be a democrat contributor.
