Abilene Motor Express....A New Place To Call Home

I figured that would be worst case, thanks for that info.

 

@5speed was that you in the '17 KW backing up traffic going over Flattop around 3pm?.

 

Not at 3. I was backing up traffic there about 11

 

What brand of trucks do the new guys get? And what trucks do you guys and girls prefer?

 

You get whatever is available. I prefer the Volvo, but to each their own.

 

Usually Kenworth T680, Freightliner Cascadias or Volvo 760s. Or if you opt for Northeast regional there will most likely be a Mack in your future.

I like KW the best of the trucks Ive driven.

 

I've been in two trucks at Abilene: A 2015 Volvo and a 2016 Volvo.

I quite like the Volvo and would be happy to stay in them throughout my career here at Abilene.

All our trucks are automatic, btw. Volvos have a manual mode, and the Freightliners do as well. But I think the manual mode has been disabled in the KWs.

 

Freightliners have the manual mode disabled. The two KWs i have driven did not.
