Comes rain or shine, and in Miami, it's mostly shine this year as the rain is making itself scarce, the US postal service makes its round six days a week, except Sundays and holidays. This is a typical postal vehicle making house to house delivery of mail. Nowadays, mail consists mostly of bills and junk advertising. Even bills are disappearing as people start using the internet to pay them. Perhaps this is why the postal rate keeps going up. We have an incremental cost of US $.02 (2 cents) every few months. It now costs US $.39 to send a piece of first class mail but it will be $.41 soon.
