Honestly, I'm shocked it could get going that fast.

Imagine being the guy in the Mustang watching a USPS van keep up with you.
He had a 4 cylinder, he should have had no surprise.
Something, something, average day for a mustang driver.
It was the Metris van, not the LLV. Thats how she was able to get it more than 55mph.
I've driven an LLV on the highway (had no choice on my old route) and even at 55 it's terrifying. Everything rattles, the motor screams and the steering wheel is going all over the place.
That certainly clears it up lol The photo was deceiving.
Yeah I was about to ask, I thought those goddamn things were 4 speeds or something lol
3 speed transmission actually, so even worse lol
Can confirm, got on the highway in an LLV once, was sure I was going to die, never again.
Give this guy a promotion.
If cops are allowed to go 105, USPS drivers absolutely should, they have a much more dangerous and socially valuable job.
Fuck yeah. Let's get FedEx and UPS too. DHL can be monitoring the police scanner.
Our packages will actually arrive on time!
I'm sorry but there ain't no fucking way a uses jeep hit 105. Nah
the grumman mail cat. made by the same folks who made the f14.
Not exactly. The body is built by Grumman, the mechanicals are by GM and based on the S10.
Looks like he finally... went postal
(╯°□°)╯︵ (■‾■⌐)
Monica told him he could have all of this if he wins.
plays gran turismo while waiting for the race to start
that's so cool
Nice!
God bless you wing of the Phoenix
