You first gig you won't need many tools. The company dosent want drivers trying to fix anything. My first job they made us go to a shop to replace the windshield wipers. One tool to have is a decent sized hammer In case you have a frozen brake shoe. We learned that the hard way.

Right, you're being hired as a driver, not a mechanic.
Different if you're an owner-operator and work on your own truck.

Newbies get fired because they hit things when backing & the hit things changing lanes.
