In the days when audiobooks were supplied on cassette or CD you're right - they were generally abridged. Now that the standard medium is MP3, most books are unabridged.

I tried it. But it requires too much attention to follow the books that my driving abilities degenerate too far to be able to drive safely. I quickly stopped trying to listen to books in the car.
If I didn't listen I'd miss parts of the book. Annoying.
