This is the Volvo I had for a very short time, one run to be exact. It had some serious damage to the top of the sleeper I hadn't noticed until I ran into rain!! USX isn't getting any more Volvos unfortunately, they truly do have more room and driver comforts than the Petes and Freightliners. These Volvos had a 77" deep sleeper compared to the standard 60" on the aforementioned two and cabinets galore. Although I did use the top bunk for sleeping and left the table set up all the time, it was really hard to make your bed standing on the ladder; especially when changing your sheets and blanket. Also, I did miss all the under bunk storage I have in my Freightliner, (There are small storage spaces under each booth seat.) Each truck I've been in has unique likes and dislikes, it would be neat to take all the good attributes form each truck and create an entirely new truck....what would it be called?

Good luck driver, i had an 07 volvo 780 just like yours, 400 miles into the 1st run from STL to DEN cracked the damn turbo. got it back from volvo week n half later all was good. then 2 mths after that i was at a pilot down in KY at the 2 mile marker woke up next morning checked fuel level and i had prolly damn near a gallon of oil in my driverside fuel tank. called my company and told em to haul it to the yard. got in the drivers seat of a 379 pete and never looked back! good luck be safe!

Hey, ya it's got an air horn but it's a button on the steering wheel instead of having a cord or cable hanging down from the celing...kind of makes you feel cheated. LOL 😊

LILBIGBROW...this was one of the trucks I drove while I was a COMPANY driver, I didn't own it. I see these old USX trucks on "Arrow Truck Sales" website and some others for around $45,000 - $55,000....these are 2007 trucks with between 400,000 - 600,000 miles on them.

I don't know about drbandach1 but the Freightliners that I am learning on have a 300 gallon capacity and get about 7mpg if your lucky. Volvo's might get a bit better mileage I don't know but for just riding around with out towing anything you're apt to get car sick.

@drbandach1 12 лет назад
Hey VUKIVAN, if you have a friend that owns his own truck, WOULD LET YOU TEAM with him AND PAY YOU; that would be the way to go. ALL big companies are going to REQUIRE you to go through a school and go out with a trainer BEFORE they let you loose on your own. Remember this though, some companies pay you a PERCENTAGE of the line haul rate of the load, this is usually more than what you would make getting paid by the mile. Your BIGGEST hurtle though is no license and no experience. I wish you al

I have a pre-hire with US Express. I was wondering if ALL the trucks are automatic? One of my trainers at CDL school told me US Express is starting to buy trucks with manual transmission?Is this true? Also concerned that if I only drive autos and later move to another company there would be a problem getting a job due to the auto only driving. I do know how to drive a manual 8 speed and shifting a 10 speed is about the same.Also,will I need my HAZ MAT?

I have a friend in Chicago and he will help me with drivers license because he owns the truck .So it will not cost to much.I can drive with him but he told me that when You drive in some company they pay per mile,and I can earn more.If it is necessary I will stay longer.If You have some useful tips it would be great.Sorry if my english is not so good.Thanks.Best regards.

@squishydafishy 12 лет назад
volvo does have the edge when it comes to driver amenities and ride, unless they changed the front suspension from what it used to be, but they fall short when it comes to feeling like your in a truck lol. dash is like a cars. as to the auto trans comments, imo its driver training/quality. cheaper not to replace clutches/drivelines. easier on driver too i guess but i've driven nothin but 18's for 27yrs so for me its the same as an auto heheheh. not commenting on poster of vid just in general

Hey VUKIVAN. Well, it's not that easy. First your going to have to attend a CDL school, (Which can run several thousand dollars and last from one to several months.) and get your license before any of the bigger companies will consider you. Once hired, your going to have to go out with a trainer for a couple hundred hours or so behind the wheel. Then pass THEIR tests BEFORE you can get out on your own. 6 months is not enough time. Sorry

Hey look... if you have to spend a lot of time on the road. Then why not have this kind of ride? So the out back is what ? a drivers dream .... I don't think so. If you can have this then why not I say. After 37 years of trucking this is the only way to go I think... Enjoy

Not all of them. Just like most other companies, they make both auto and stick shift. US Xpress, by the way, no longer uses all autos. They have changed most of them to stick and next year, they will all be stick shifts! They still advertise on the website, however, that they have all autos! I they don't stop false advertising and remove that shit from the website and all their signs I am going to sue the balls off them bastards! They have already pissed me off!
