Although your chances of getting rich are unlikely, a trucking career can be personally rewarding. Many truckers are able to own their own trucks and become their own bosses. The YouTube channel Smart Drive Test lists the reasons why trucking careers could be right for you.
If you really enjoy driving, then trucking is right for you.
Many trucking jobs pay you by the mile, so the more you drive, the more you make. You may get to go all over the country or even into Mexico or Canada. You can also choose to stay local. You can often choose when to work.
Unlike other careers, you can always find trucking jobs. People always need to move merchandise from one place to another. There have been very few industries other than trucking that have consistently been in demand.
There is always something different happening in a trucking career. If you enjoy variety in your work day, trucking is for you. You have to deal with different people, different situations, different regulations, and, should you choose, different freight. There are many unpredictable things that happen, from sudden changes in fuel costs to finding new routes because old ones are under construction.
