A friend of mine used a gay dolphin as an Xbox username years ago. Having "a gay dolphin killed you" flash on the screen in Halo was demoralizing.

Why the hell can't these designers make an EV that doesn't look ridiculous. I know its a USPS vehicle, but it looks ridiculous.

Is there room for one or two hammocks in the back?

It looks larger, so it can probably hold more packages.

The weird windshield design is probably to help with visibility and ease of parking.

Seems like a good design, but I thought it would be smarter to just put a box on a cheap Ford or Chevy van chassis and roll with that. Far more likely to get spare parts for those things than a custom Oshkosh truck.

More cargo room is always a plus when pulling up alongside the 13 yard dumpsters to make deliveries.

Why throw packages away when you can just load them onto the nearest truck and make them someone else's problem?

I think that's exactly what happens at most USPS hubs.

Wife showed it to me last night on the facebook. My first thought was maybe they can fit larger packages in them, but they would still leave a notice and I'd have to eventually go pick it up from our distribution center.
