It's a bald faced marketing ploy, and someone working in PR for Chrysler tallying media hits will place the appearance of the story in EcoModder's blog in the "success" column of a spreadsheet somewhere.

But that's just my opinion.

Not saying they won't produce any for USPS, but they don't plan to build em for public consumption. They certainly don't need a demonstration project.
