Gone Postal by Cale
-----------------------------------
One of the long time veterans of the circuit, Gone Postal is one of the most consistently popular trucks in the history of the series.  Conceived in the early 1990's as a converted Post Office Jeep which the driver, a former frustrated mailman himself, had purchased in an auction, the truck had a bouncy and by then outdated coil spring and Rancho shock suspension and a name which was controversial at the time due to lingering memories of recent events.  The truck got an updated full four-link suspension a few years later and became one of the top runners in the sport.  The truck was only recently remodeled with a new frame and suspension, Hummer body (for, as the driver says, "The ultimate urban assault vehicle look") and a new paintjob which matches the updated image of the United States Post Office.  In recent years the truck has joined OutRageous and Mayhem Maker as being more well known for freestyle than for racing, though every year it manages to score one major event victory.  The Post Office despises the machine, claiming it reinforces false stereotypes and violates trademarks (although a judge has said differently); the driver says he supports postal workers and it's the upper levels of management which the truck stands against.  Controversy aside, the truck remains a fan favorite, and the crowd always gets on its feet when, in freestyle, the driver has finally Gone Postal.
