    Isn't one yearly payment cheaper than 12 monthly payments? That's the way it works on my car insurance, but for 6 months.

    Sad you think it takes 5 years of drivers experience to be an O/O. Driving is the easiest part of being an O/O.

    If people enjoy being alone or don’t mind it trucking can be a good job. Someone may enjoy seeing the country and being outside vs office or factory all day.

    if your single and want wife and family. It might not be the best choice. Driving cross country for weeks would not be easy with wife or family at the house waiting for you to get home. A single person might enjoy seeing the country to decide were they want to live first.
     
    Bud A. Thanks this.
