Interesting website, its worth looking on the Who We Are section..
Slightly late edit but I reckon even more interesting would be a Who Funds Us section.

All they do is post links/articles from other websites...It doesn't matter who they are or who funds them. Already went through this with one muppet who always claims the website isn't credible.. & who promptly STFU about it after I pointed out he'd posted a story that was also shared on CCD...demographic wrote: ↑Wed Dec 25, 2024 6:02 pm

Even even more interesting would be you telling us which parts of the article are wrong. (If you think it's wrong.)demographic wrote: ↑Wed Dec 25, 2024 6:02 pmZRX61 wrote: ↑Wed Dec 25, 2024 4:39 pm Fell a bit short of expectations:

The trucks mentioned in the article are being made by Oshkosh. The US Postal Service was give $3bn in 2023 to modernise it's vehicle fleet, Oshkosh was one of several contractors involved, with their role being to design and build a new truck for delivery in 2025. From the five minutes I spent researching I think the 93 vehicles delivered so far are pre production test trucks. So far the project looks on track however, there's a good chance Trump will have some input with anything from cancelling the project, moving parts of it to fossil fuel vehicles and rolling back Bidens EV incentive possible.Saga Lout wrote: ↑Thu Dec 26, 2024 10:03 amEven even more interesting would be you telling us which parts of the article are wrong.
