Hundreds of US Postal Service delivery trucks are catching fire as they continue to outstay their 24-year life expectancy

. Based on a Chevrolet S-10 truck chassis, they are powered by Pontiac engines and use three-speed transmissions. They have a 1,000-pound cargo capacity and roughly a 24-year life expectancy. The LLVs have been in service since around 1987, with the last deliveries occurring in 1994.

Over the last six years, hardly a week went by without a mail truck catching on fire somewhere in the U.S. Many days saw multiple fires. On December 21, 2015, two LLVs were destroyed in fires, in Manchester, New Hampshire and Hummelstown, Pennsylvania. On June 13, 2016, three LLVs caught fire in Houston, Texas, Okeechobee, Florida, and Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.

An aging delivery fleet is yet another problem the USPS faces, in addition to a dwindling budget and pandemic-related health issues. It's not clear if the USPS's financial emergency is related to its trucks catching on fire, but they certainly coincide. Ashows that the agency planned to deploy the new vehicles starting in January 2018, but Vice reported that "the USPS has yet to even decide on a vehicle."
