At Swift, we’ve always celebrated Avocado for his accomplishments. This year, the rest of the industry recognized his incredible impact.

The Truckload Carriers Association recognizes the most outstanding drivers in the country through its Professional Drivers of the Year program. Only five drivers nationwide are selected for this prestigious honor ever year. The award celebrates drivers who demonstrate superior safety records, strong leadership, industry impact, as well as meaningful contributions to their communities and companies. Honorees are recognized during TCA’s Annual Convention, and each recipient receives a $20,000 cash award.

Swift proudly nominated Avocado as a candidate, as his story exemplifies everything the award stands for. Considering his historic million-mile achievement, leadership of the Guac Squad, and consistently meeting fuel, safety, and mileage requirements placing him in Swift’s Diamond Driver program- Jesus’ sets the bar high. Jesus was chosen as one of 2026’s Driver of the Year recipients, and we couldn’t be prouder of his achievement.
