It's on the way.... I saw a prototype a couple of months ago.
pic was found by me a few months ago in the following thread:

i was wondering what happened with that experiment
---------------------------
back on topic:
fraggin 1.5 hour unpaid trip to the service area ~
relatively light day (so it seemed, but i was near a salty body of water with re-construction going on to get the towns back to service before the summer season hits)
when i went in early to load/ micro-sort my parcels into the package car, i found out that i had 2 evening appointment deliveries ~ fawwwwwwwwwwwk!!!!!!!!!! I could have stayed home & come in 2 hours later!
so i delivered those 2 within the 5PM-8PM deadlines & just drove 2 unpaid hours directly to my home... (I would have gone back to the terminal, but w/ this division, you have that option). took my unregulated breaks in between some stops so i can stay at the service area until 7PM.
as a swing, i'll have a different area to cover manana <shrugs> it was just one of those days where it didn't go smoothly.
PS: Maine, i'm glad you have a decent contractor
