At least new ones are coming in. But the problem is, they are so far behind on getting new trailers (they should have started this process 2-3 years ago, not last spring!) that I seriously doubt that the company is viable at this point. They are struggling, badly.
And this is not just a driver's opinion. Last spring I went to pick up a trailer from a repair shop. When I went in to let the manager know I was picking up the trailer, he commented to me first about the lack of trailers. I agreed, and sticking up for USX, I said "Well at least we've got a bunch of new ones coming in." His reply was "Yes, but I'm thinking it's too little too late." He seemed genuinely concerned, and mentioned that his son in law drives for USX. So I think his opinion is valid. That's what got me to thinking about what a serious issue the trailer situation is. Really, it's one of the main reasons I left.
