[QUOTE="quad decade guy, post: 5327273, member: 77939"] I did a heavy commercial nut and bolt route in a hot climate for 15 years...the same route. In those days, we often had gatorade at end of day. Water dispensers appeared gradually and ice machines.... Delivering. Well, it was hot. I just drank ambient temp water from a non insulated container. Whatever that ended up being. I drank whenever I could as needed. Never fell out or came close to it. I tried to spend as little time as possible in the back. Sometimes, you just had to stop and reload. Face the rear of the car in the breeze(if any) and get to it. Open doors and wind while driving was good enough. Pleasant? No. Shrug. Did this through my mid 40's. UPS could have an AC blower of some sort(like at Six Flags standing in open air lines) for relief.....I'd rather have a raise. It could be done. Venting the back? It could be done. As mentioned, dust, water leaks and all would be insurmountable. [/QUOTE]
