I saw the gas company guy zooming around the neighborhood reading gas meters on one of those segway things the other day. It was pretty neat.

I think UPS is more concerned with saving time than gas, those teamster truck drivers are not cheap.

i thought they were doing something where they don't turn off their trucks while delivering packages. isnt it like everytime you start up your car its the same as sitting idle for 15 minutes?

They save time, they save gas, and they save vehicle crash's. Wonder how this will effect wear and tear on the trucks.

I've heard stuff like that but I've never seen any proof.

The local ups drivers know this and most practice it when they can, they certainly have their routes mapped out to perfection... here anyway..

Ive never had issues with UPS. Fedex however sends me damaged shit all the time.
