any info about Abilene motor freight

Good luck with that.

All anyone around here seems to say is to stay away because US Xpress is part owner, lol. They don't seem to run there operation the same way so I don't understand what that matters.

Would be nice if ACTUAL drivers of the company would post but then again most people only bother posting if they have something to complain about. Maybe it's a good sign?

I know outsiders adding nothing but stay away because of who owns part of the company doesn't add anything useful. There have been several people inquiring, including myself, but that is all anyone says. At least in the past month anyway

 

Perhaps it has somethng to do with USX reputation.

Look at every other company they got their hands on !!!!

Abilene, as well as Total Transportation both used to be stand up outfits......

 

Do you work there? Do you KNOW first hand they aren't any good now?

All your doing is making assumptions, if they were so bad there would be threads about them. I can't find ANY. Doesn't mean your assumptions aren't correct, but I prefer to hear from someone that actually works there now.

 

In the last 3 years,

their safety record has gone right down the drain.


How hard is it to figure the reason........

 

Well you may be correct, I'm not arguing that. Just seems odd that no one is on here complaining about them.

The safety record is a valid point. They seem to have decent equipment so what causes it, bad drivers? I've been out of trucking the last 2.5 years and getting ready to get back in, the whole CSA 2010 thing is all new to me.

 

Nobody is on here,

most likely because of how small the company is.

 

I would have thought with 200 trucks and a high turnover (if indeed it is a bad company) that drivers would be on here complaining. I know 200 trucks isn't large by any stretch but there are all kinds of posts about smaller companies than that.

Guess the CSA thing is a good measure, and since no one does respond your explanation is as good and as logical as we have, thanks!

 

Road call i talled to them about a year ago and they told me that i would have to take my vehicle to richmond for the times they could load me by thehouse
