You guys have these new trucks in your hub yet?

@Rack em wears a girdle. Does that work?

Depends on how old the elastic band is.

 

[Just A UPS Guy]

Eh, who care it's only going to screw the rural route guys and to hell with them anyways.

Looks childish. A rectangle brown tail that will get washed for 6 weeks then it'll be back to stops per car and "quit using that thing".

If that Flight Foward system runs as well as that Hydraulic Electrical Car, it's doomed to fail. I don't see this idea being practical, it looks more like a publicity stunt.

And it will get washed twice a year so it will all be some shade of brown.

Also, if the drone has a problem and you have to write it up, will the drone be red-tagged, or will the driver be told, "ok to fly, parts on order"?

The Union better get a grab on these jobs. I’d sign a bid for that job for sure if i could go back to package with all my seniority if the program got scrapped in the future.

 

[I have been lurking]

Is that the new NDA compartment?

Somebody will drive it under a low-hanging tree branch and rip that drone box attachment off in no time.

Ups flight forward is a non union separate division of ups. If you see that thing on property file a grievance. It should not be delivering ups packages.

Teamsters dropping the ball on that one. Driving one of those is def a 6 figure job.

Who’s going to fly these drone’s?
Seems like something that needs to be negotiated
Wonder if the teamsters will step up

Step up? Lol

 

[G.V. Rush]

75-80 stops out in the country is almost
enjoyable on a nice day

If you like driving 230 miles, sure.

Piece a cake

 

[clean hairy]

If they are not concerned about low clearances with the added height, there is no excuse for not putting exhaust fans in...
And, the exhaust fans cost less than that contraption on the roof of the one in the pic.....
