    They were built to last 24 years (later extended to 30 years) that is about how long the mail jeeps from the 50’s lasted before being replaced with the LLV. As to why they have been delayed in replacements… seems oshkosh underestimate how long it’ll take to create a whole brand new production line from them and was ill prepared and the government too far invested to seek a new bidder.
