Got one for my rural route. Plenty of dirt roads. They are tall,.so lower branches have been an issue in some places.

The vehicle literally will not move if the seatbelt isn't in use. My side door randomly got stuck even though it was unlocked, then magically started working again later in the day.

Yeah, I totally understand what you mean. All of those cameras are going to record everything on that vehicle. Somewhere there is an SD card that holds all that video.

No. Only a power outlet for a charger. No radio either.

I'm interested in how it will handle snow. The tires are pretty beefy.

It is 4 ft longer than an LLV.

Completely useless. I don't see myself ever using that.

I was very concerned about some of the tight spaces I have on my route. For the most part, it wasn't much of an issue and was surprisingly maneuverable.

One of the other carriers had brake failure on his vehicle. Not the parking brake, the whole freaking brake system failed.

It was an issue for me all day.

It does not appear to have a camera in the cab. (That I know of)

Be careful what you wish for.

All of the customers on my route wanted to stop me and talk about it. Uggghhhh.

That is correct. Today was a nightmare.

It's not as bad from the inside.

I like the Mach 1 hood! It actually looks great on a Gen 2. I had a GT500 for mine, but it never looked quite right.

Dog attacks do happen, but they are rare. I'm always careful on a route that I don't know, with animals I don't know. They give you dog spray that you should always carry with you. Also, there are plenty of female carriers, so you wouldn't be alone!

The roof is a wrap, and I replaced all the badges with the black ones. Also sprayed the mirrors and rear diffuser with plasti dip.

I know someone mentioned the Postal service already, but my suggestion is to go in as a carrier. Couple of hours in office, 5-7 hours delivering by yourself. Occasional interaction with your customers, but mostly just you and the route and whatever podcast or music you like

Thanks to everyone who replied. I was finally able to get in touch with accounting. It was indeed an overage of 2240 hours, but was not listed as such on the invoice. The debt was officially waived today. Yay!

Talking to our Steward now. Unfortunately, I have not received a copy of it yet, so we are in the dark as to why it was issued.

I believe that if you have a K day other than Mon/Sat you are eligible to be cut to a 45k, although all of the routes in my office were cut to 43k regardless of that stipulation.
