The US Postal Service on Tuesday unveiled a modern replacement for the iconic Grumman LLV mail truck that has been in use since the late 1980s.

The new design consists of a waste-high front hood that resembles the front beak of a duck in front of an extra-high windshield.

Oshkosh Defense has been contracted to build between 50,000 and 165,000 of the new trucks over the next 10 years — replacing vehicles that have been in service for as long as three decades, USPS said in a statement.

Does it make carriers less lazy and better at their jobs?

They should start there

This will surely expedite shipping times and make the service more reliable.

Mail carriers where I live drive personal vehicles.

It looks like an anthropomorphic “CARS”-esque version of Milton from Office Space

Well at least they’ll be able to see out of that windshield. Holy shite.

I'm sure the USPS has the money to spend on a mail car revamp

The wiper blade replacements are going to cost as much as tires.
