[QUOTE="reydluap, post: 75954, member: 1583"] I'm probably going to start a b**ching session with this post. But, I have wondered about this for over 25 years and just have to ask. Why is it that the new package cars seem to go to the big cities and all the hand me down junk trickes to Iowa? I truely believe that before a package car actually gets scrapped, it comes to my center for the last 50000 miles. I am a lucky driver myself, I have the newest P1000 in my center and it's a 1996 model with 600,000 miles on her. Two years ago we were forced to take 4 Sprinter vans and they are always red tagged for repairs. Our P700's are hand me downs and are some of the oldest production types. I'm not even going to get into the P500 suicide machines. When hurricanes,floods or any natural disaster hits an area and damages package cars in a center, are they replaced with new package cars? I' still waiting to see the new logo on my package car. UPS made such an issue about it a few years ago and only a handful of our package cars have the new branding. [/QUOTE]
