I was flipping through my latest Popular Mechanics and saw what I first thought was a mini.

Looks like a mini but runs on electricity. Appears UPS needs a way of moving things more economically than their oversized vans. Maybe 12" hiway tires will increase in selection also.

Wow, that sure does look like a carry with some oddball looking headlights grafted into the front.

I've actually heard of some propane "mini" trucks being used by big factorys, haven't seen myself to verify but I heard gulfstream (the private jet maker)in savannah uses some in there "HUGE" wharehouses, they can't use gasoline for obvious reasons inside

I would guess it is probably the same power, and speed as a golf cart.:confused:
