[QUOTE="bad company, post: 238989, member: 9308"] I don't understand why some of you are giving this lady such a hard time. Christine, are there any specific questions you may have? I will try to help any way I can, but your post is very vague. You could write about how the roofs of all the UPS delivery trucks (known by UPSers as "package cars") are white. I think the average person doesn't know that they're white. They are actually made of fiberglass and serve three purposes. It makes the vehicle weight lighter, it reflects sun light to help cool the back of the package car, and lastly it lets in a large amount of natural sun light so the driver can see what the heck he is doing. You could also incorporate the history of the color of the package cars (Pullman Brown) and its origins.

I drive in the Atlanta area and those three record breaking weeks we had last month were absolutely killer. Just a thought... [/QUOTE]
