Chattanooga, TN, June 3, 2008--U.S. Xpress Enterprises Inc., the nation's third-largest privately-owned truckload carrier, said that its Xpress Global Systems subsidiary has finalized the asset purchase of Pinner Transportation, Inc.'s business.

Based primarily in the Southeast and Southwest, Pinner is a regional carrier that specializes in floor covering logistics and less-than-truckload service.

"Xpress Global Systems is one of the most successful floor covering logistics providers in the transportation industry, and we believe the addition of Pinner Transportation will further strengthen our scope of service," said Patrick Quinn, U.S. Xpress Enterprises co-chairman.
