[QUOTE="trplnkl, post: 293858, member: 13254"] Yesterday, I drove a 1985 p500 the hand brake wouldn't hold, the bulk head door was very hard to open and close (took two hands), the drivers door would not close all the way (1/4 daylight gap), none of the dash gauges have worked in years, the back door seals are in such bad shape that one two mile trip on a dirt road and every package close to the back is covered in dust, driving into a 10-15 mph wind = 55-60 truck mph max, the steering is so loose the truck road walks like an Egyptian. The mechanics can't repair crap because UPS won't give them the time for the work and money for parts. Tell me again UPS really cares about MY safety and health. Seems to me that they could put all that money they are spending on technology to catch someone not setting their hand brake once in a while or not using their seat belt for a three house drive up to better use. Don't get me wrong, I believe that all those safety rules are good and should be used, but I call BS on the premise that this technology is for OUR safety. [/QUOTE]
