Interesting, if odd, design.

Interesting, because UPS considers it's trucks a service mark and symbol of their brand. I remember the unique models the company had through the '80s and '90s, and those vehicles went directly to scrap at the end of their useful service lives. UPS would not allow them to be resold to anyone, because they didn't want to have one of their trucks be repainted in "Hemp Heaven", or "Cesspool Sludge Removal" liveries.

I wonder if UPS will introduce a similarly novel truck here, and if they will stipulate to Tesla that UPS will be the only customer for that model, as they've done in the past with other truck makers.

I have always wondered what happens to their old trucks. I assumed they would've resold them to South America since it's such a massive fleet of custom vehicles.
