There are many unanswered questions regarding Oshkosh Defense’s $6 billion contract with USPS, including whether an electric prototype or a “swappable” drivetrain even exists. Yet there are ways to achieve electrification of the USPS fleet and avoid living with Postmaster General Louis DeJoy’s ham-handed decision for decades to come.
The contract, which calls for putting 50,000 to 165,000 Next Generation Delivery Vehicles into service over 10 years, includes electric powertrains as well as internal combustion engines.
Oshkosh Corporation has announced it is continuing the production of its Defense, Fire & Emergency, and Commercial segments while suspending Access Equipment production.
Dana Incorporated will provide its Spicer D172 series heavy-duty tandem axles and its SPL 170 and 250 driveshafts to McNeilus Truck and Manufacturing, Inc., as standard equipment for its newly redesigned Oshkosh S-Series Front Discharge Mixer.
The McNeilus recall affects 365 refuse and concrete mixer trucks, and the Oshkosh recall covers 33 S-Series concrete mixers.
The recall affects 24 2015 model-year S-Series front discharge concrete mixer glider trucks at risk for sudden loss of drive power.
Precise concrete placement is a traditional feature for this front-discharge mixer, but relatively new is natural gas power.
