The trucking industry is rapidly changing with new technology offering an opportunity to improve bottom-line results, changes that new U.S. Xpress Enterprises CEO Eric Fuller told Transport Topics will make or break companies over the next decade or so.

U.S. Xpress Enterprises Inc. founder Max Fuller has turned over the reins of his company to his son Eric Fuller, although the elder will remain as executive chairman to focus on long-term strategy, industry innovation, talent development and equipment, the company announced March 16.

Don Davis and his wife, Rebekah, nearly doubled their combined income when the two military veterans became commercial truck drivers and started making longhaul trips between Chicago and the East Coast for the Chattanooga, Tennessee-based U.S. Xpress Enterprises.

U.S. Xpress officials and employees gathered Jan. 21 at the company's Tennessee headquarters to hear what co-founder, Chairman and CEO Max Fuller and his management team would say on the trucking firm's 30th anniversary.

U.S. Xpress Enterprises announced it will raise base mileage pay March 1 by an average of 13.5% for solo over-the-road drivers who have not had accidents, tickets or Compliance, Safety, Accountability violations for a 12-month period in an effort to reward safe operation as well as retain drivers.

U.S. Xpress Enterprises Inc. announced that Chief Financial Officer Ray Harlin will retire Dec. 31 and that Eric Fuller has been appointed president and chief operating officer, effective immediately.
