they come with either a GM 6.0l v8 gas engine or a cummins turbo diesel. there’s an older cummins powered one in my city that has a ridiculously loud side exit exhaust.

A lot of the newer ones are. I think they come with the 6.2L v8. I think they are built off super duty chassis’

The ones we work on have the 7.3 Godzilla in them. Unrelated but they chew through u joints like they use them for fuel lol. Pretty much every 20k

Those are step vans. FedEx trucks are typically built in a Ford chassis.

Freightliner MT-45, found one w a Cummins 24v w 300k miles for 13k and converted to a food truck 2 years ago, solid choice for a food truck, I think most have racks for packages and the whole assembly is held together with thousands of hardened steel rivets that are inaccessible with a grinder, invest in drill bits, lots, hit me up if ya want more info
