2 of my good buddies haul fuel now. One started a year ago and the other a few mos at the same company. They love it. Good pay, home every night. One of them always calls me on holidays to crow that he's making like $600 on those days because no one else wants to work![]()

The guy shows up with a little fire extinguisher, like that's going to do anything. What an idiot, shut the fuel off 1st. Some 3rd world country, I'm sure.

I completely agree, I seen a statistic where 8/10 major accidents involving a fuel truck thre driver passed away. I basically drive like my life depended on it.
Gas stations, trucking yards that have on site fuel and the oil field. -
You'll be fine. Considering how much fuel travels our roads, compared to the mishaps, it's a pretty safe deal. Fuel haulers always commanded my utmost respect, especially now that I live in Colorado, where these tankers go in the mountains, hanging iron and everything, is outrageous. I hauled one(1) load of gasoline in my entire career, I was squeezing the color out of the steering wheel, and knew right away, it wasn't for me, even though, tanker is the best gig, by far. I've had non-fuel tanker jobs that were great. Good luck.
