Anyway, I am assured that my mailbox will be at the prescribed height sometime this week.
Nice!

Listen to BK911. He knows from 1st hand experience. Go back and read his thread about the wrecked car and county's fault.


Sorry BK911. I truly wish that had turned out in your favor.

Here all the rural letter carriers drive grey market imported Japanese right hand drive cars, not quite the same but basically they're Toyota Rave 4 and Honda CRV's.

Our girl had a Canada Post Grumman LLV (post office special), but gave it back as it was a total POS, especially in the snow. She said every time she got in it that this could be the day she dies.
Canada Post has a bunch of Grumman LLV's they bought to test the when they were looking to replace their whole fleet, Grumman lost because they are such a POS in snow.
Most posties say being given a LLV is a punishment.

Not putting miles on your car is like not having sex with your girlfriend, so she'll be more desirable to her next boyfriend.

In the true sense of government blundering, they will probably lower the road rather spending time raising mailboxes.
