Yes, It ‘Looks Like a Duck,’ but Carriers Like the New Mail Truck
Published On Nov 26, 2024, 1:17 PM
The U.S. Postal Service has begun rolling out new electric delivery trucks designed for improved efficiency and comfort for mail carriers. These trucks, which feature air-conditioning and enhanced cargo space, have been positively received by carriers who previously used outdated models. This upgrade comes after public pressure and legal challenges, resulting in the commitment to make 75% of the new vehicles electric rather than gas-powered.
