So if this is real, how much left for me? The Real Cost of Trucking...

Tires running close to $500 a pop, running spread axle in steel mills and on construction sites and shipyards, $4000 a year for tires is right on if not a little low. I buy 8-10 every year. Either trailer or drive tires. Then you gotta figure in steer tires. Over the road you may do better. Insurance seems a little low and they only show fuel tax, need to add in all other taxes. Other than that seems accurate. How we'll you can do will depend on what you can get for your rates. Go with the big companies and bottom feeders average and you will go broke.

 

That truck won't be in business long. He spent 101% of the trucks revenue.

 

I stopped at 50000$ for trailers

 

You can spend alot more than that.
