Worst Package Car You've Driven?

[Future]

I had a package car during peak two years ago that would backfire so loud that people would drop to the ground thinking it was gunfire or a bomb......seriously.

Those where common back "in the day" LMao

Have to say the new 2015/16 Freightliner PC's are almost a joy to drive. Finally becoming somewhat respectable machines compared with the old. Makes the job twice as easy. The gas ones are really quick too. They can merge to 65 MPH with ease.

My mother got on of the first Hyundai's on the market.

Worst car ever.

Two weeks after she bought it, she was visiting friends at the farm...my little brother thought it would be funny to shut the crazy dog inside the car...

He got bored, or interested in something else, and the crazy dog got left in the Hyundai for almost two hours.

He ate up all the seats and seat belts, pissed all over the entire car, good times.

So here's the worst car in the world, with no working seat belts, reeking of dog piss, seat cushion stuffing coming out everywhere.

Mom was actually glad when I totaled it a month later.

What were the trucks that had the brake and clutch petals really far apart and the steering wheel was way off center? That was like driving a clown car.

We had one of those. If I remember correctly, it was a 42xxx.

You drove down the street with your head turned to see where you were going.

The worst? The no power steering, high step one I couldn't drive because the seat was welded in place and couldn't be adjusted. (It was in the closest position to the steering wheel). Brake and gas were so close together I couldn't press one without the other. I refused to drive it.

P600. 606** Wooden bulkhead with a padlock on top. Drove an older one with a pull out choke on the dash.

I'm a young buck still so I don't know about all this stuff. My pet peeve lately are the trucks that don't turn right very well. The ones you have to make like 4 backs just to turn a 90° right turn

We call those "skinnies" because they are longer and about 12" narrower than a conventional P700. They have the turning radius of a freaking school bus. I refuse to drive one, if my car gets pulled and they load my route into one I unload it into a shop spare. They are the worst cars UPS has made in 20 years, dangerous on a rural route.

Worst PC I ever drove was a late 50's P-400. It didnt even have reverse lights. Wooden shelves, portholes in the roof instead of fiberglass, no light in back, and a bulkhead door 2" shorter than me so I would hit my head unless I ducked. They also had drum brakes that locked up on wet pavement. Horrid, dangerous, undersized and underpowered little pieces of feces.

The worst thing I ever drove was an early 70's Ford F600 cabover with a 24' box on the back. Air brakes that sometimes didn't stop and you could lift up the rubber mat and see the road through the rust holes in the floor. The wooden shelves and re-manufactured engines that would blow up all the time just made my days a little more interesting. The P-400 and P-600s were a treat to drive also.

Hope you weren't driving that one in the Hood!

 

[Covemastah]

UPS car had to be ....a wood shelf one ...can't remember if it was a 500 or 800

I had a 600 with the narrow wooden shelves and the round foot pedals and a padlock !!
Great times @Future

I used to do that on purpose by shutting the ignition off for a couple of seconds and letting it coast in gear. When you turn the key on again -----KABOOM!!! Once I let it build up a little too long andit blew the muffler apart at the seam. Our mechanic didn't think it was as funny as I did.
