How many different models of package cars are there?

The new p57 Workhorses are just badass! All the newest models are.. Gas powered all the way!

Those are the best. Man they got some giddy behind them.

Reduced Engine Power

Causes truck to go no faster than 10 miles an hour, until it kicks into 2nd gear after 3 mins, in which case it will almost make 20 mph. What is it? In addition, the lights on my car flicker while I am driving down the highway, and if I close the door or something heavy falls in the back, the hydraulic brake assist kicks in-the whine one hears when they put their foot on the brake pedal-and the tail lights come on, all with the car off and I may be away delivering a package. I've seen the flickering lights on a couple other package cars, and even on some other non-UPS delivery trucks as well.

What's up with these things? Brown Mechanic, other mechanics?

Bad ground somewhere.

You aren't allowed to take pictures of your vehicle and post them on social media. You could try and google pics of ups package cars. There are probably a ton of pics.

Looks like im in trouble then.....

We've got two of these, to be used as early AM and air cars...

One of them goes out with about 140+ stops a day...

FedEx got one of them, too...

Obviously this model is not exclusive to UPS as others have been in the past.

This is the first time I’ve ever heard this before and I’ve been to integrad and they are like drill sergeants they tell you everything you can and can’t do, idk I have pics of my truck on my Instagram and nothing came of it.

One of the trucks I drive is a workhorse 500 where the steering wheel blocks the whole dash display. Can't see the speedometer etc. Poor design but love that little truck. You can turn around in any driveway.

Advice 5 years later is better than none at all.
