    Just don't wear when you leave the truck and you may be ok.

    Not one lil bit.
    I Don't Care How Rich You Are, You Can't Buy A UPS Truck
    There are some minor inaccuracies here such as the white trucks people see at hubs. They are brand new and haven't been painted yet. They come white and are painted brown in house. The last package car I seen being used as a road service truck for the shop was brown it just had a few strobe lights on it but that was 20 years ago. These days there is no dedicated truck and they just take whatever is sitting around. But other than that the rest is correct. They take a angle grinder with a wire wheel to the sides and back to remove the logos, strip off any parts they deem usable then they go to the scrap yard. They used to be crushed under ups supervision but they don't do that anymore. They can't afford to have anyone away from the hub not working that long so they just send em now.

    Reason for edit: Autocorrect is my worst enema.
