They're in process of replacing them all with AC trucks. It will take years, but they're approved and under way. However, they remain unprofitable, and UPS/FedEx continue to use non-AC trucks due to the massive cost savings and having to compete in the open market rather than be allowed to function with billions in losses like the USPS.

I think it was because they were supposed to be all electric. Like the A/C is going to work in 117 degree heat!
