I’m a mail carrier and we have one of these in our office. I don’t care that it’s ugly, the problem is that it’s way too fucking big. I don’t want to have to park this monstrosity. it’s clearly designed for parcel delivery and nothing else. we needed an actual replacement for the LLV and this is not that
There is a specter haunting the Post Office, the specter of Amazon Sundays
I’ve been seeing these around and thinking the same. Like why are they so fucking massive, that must be such a pain in the ass
damn i didn’t know it was that big
it being for parcel delivery is just preparing for the future.
Unpopular opinion but peak car design is actually just a golf cart.
Why else does anyone persist with the world’s worst sport. The people yearn for golf carts.
in the future all vehicles will be goofy akira toriyama-ass shapes like this
Damn you weren’t kidding
reminds me of the nissan Scargo
can’t wait to ride one of these
Getting hype as fuck for the tanks of WW3
I don’t know what weapons WW4 will be fought with, but WW3 will be fought with Metal Slugs.
WW4 will be fought with the Taranis tank from those Fuga games
Sloped armor is for nerds.
Exactly what I was thinking of. Sand Land has some fun mechanical design.
Round armor is probably better. The problem is manufacturing. You’d have to cast whole sections and repairs would be more difficult. It’s a lot easier to stick flat pieces of armor at an angle.
I just wish WWI designs would come back with their goofy-ass shit like 12 person tank crews, tricycle towers, and 8 turrets. We will never see the creation of Bolos because physics is a meanie who says “No” to all the cool stuff.
I like the little mini tanks in wwI and wwII
It actually is
Nice low front so you can a full view ahead.
Tall so you can walk normally in the cab and storage area
Hopefully has A/C and decent heating
If it’s made out of cheap tractor parts like the old LLVs then even better
Hopefully has A/C and decent heating
The USPS keeps getting fucked with their budget, so I doubt it lmao
They do have AC, the first batch pf vehicles was delivered a few months ago
peak car is actually the el camino because you get both a car and a truck
In Spanish they call it el el camino
(Not having a go at you for calling it the el camino that’s its name, just poking fun at the auto manufacturers for naming their cars awkwardly, like the pajero)
look at all tha tfucking functional storage
Utes, many brands used to make them,not sure if Holden still makes its utes
Everyone in Sahel Africa seen these Peugeot 504
Holden doesn’t even exist anymore.
it’s over for utes
That doesn’t look like a train
This is for last mile delivery. But yes, a train would be dope for the main logistics stuff
Edit: IFF the rails got expropriated
If it was electric you could probably shave off the hood and make it more tramlike
15·22 hours agoI’m reminded of a video I watched recently where the youtuber talked about how when hit by an american truck with their big front grill people would get pushed over, or worse under, whereas with more “European” cars they would get scooped up on the hood and it was safer. Something to take into consideration.
Edit: not just bikes

The motorcycle (and now boat) channel Fortnine did a video where they did some math to estimate exactly how many more people are dying each year because of giant truck grilles, here.
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
Upvote just for the cat comment.
Yeah if it’s got a little slope to it the person usually bumps around it

apparently there’s an electric version
They have to maintain both because many post offices are in places without adequate charging infrastructure, makes sense.
They make ones with solar on the roof, it’s a neat little all in one package, just leave the vehicle a bit to charge
And the rest of us are STILL waiting for Aptera to get their crap together. Fuck it just let me buy one of those!
yeah that seemed very interesting, a cheap small trike car that can just run entirely on solar seems very peak
wonder if china has anything similar
No, that’s not allowed we can’t have good things here, definitely not a cuter mailbox
“Good mail delivery box.” (Pat the box)
I wish, that would be cool
Reminds me of the flying car in cloudy with a chance of meatballs
I actually think it is adorable. But more importantly, it’s fit for purpose.
Pixar lookin ahh vehicle
Looks like the popemobile
Its cool because cars have a personality and this ones is “the thinker”.
