Check first before you apply if Italy is has a treaty with the US for the E-2 visa only nationals from a country with a treaty can apply for the E-2, there is no specified amount to invest, however you must prove your business enterprise is an "at risk" investment to gain approval. The greater the amount invested the more chance you have of being approved, so yes $100 000 at the bare minimum, although $250 000 would be a sure winner. You must also prove its not just an income and helping to employ others is also a positive for your business. Are you applying outside the US or within the US? There will be different procedures to follow. From within the US if you on a B1 - B2 visa you'll need to apply for a change of status, note you cannot change status if you've entered the US on a visa waiver (ESTA) you'd need to leave and apply for a visa outside the USA, file form I - 539 and submit all your information to the USCIS, pay the $370 application fee, in some cases if you qualify you can use premium processing with your application completed in about 15 business days for an extra fee of $2500.
If your outside the US you'll have to apply for the E-2 visa at a US consulate, file the online DS-160 online application for a non - immigration visa, pay the fee, print out the confirmation page which you'll need to bring with you to the consulate, book a day and time and attend the interview bring along your business plan and proof of funds. If successful you have the visa stamped on a blank page congratulations your now free to travel to the US and invest in your business, keeping in mind the E-2 is only valid while you run and manage the business, you may need to check to see if you can personally drive or you have to hire other drivers. Providing employment to others is always a good move when applying for a visa. The E-2 visa is only good while you continue to run and own the majority of your business, if you were to sell the business you'd be required to leave, you cannot just go get a job driving for someone else and if your caught out breaking your visa requirements it'll be a quick exit from the USA. The E-2 is a non - immigration visa, however you can technically remain in the US indefinitely while you continue to run and own the business. You'd just be required to submit an extension every couple of years.
All the best with your business mate.

Thank you very much for your explanation, I really appreciate it and I will probably apply outside the US. Could you please take a look at this link, it would be for the Non-Immigrant CDL.

It seems to be possible to obtain a CDL to drive as an owner operator driver through E2.

Yes, Italy is one of the countries that have treaty with the United States and I intend to invest in a new truck, new equipment and meet all the prerequisites.

Marry an American woman. Won't take but a few months to be here legally.
www.blossoms.com is a good website to find an American wife.

American men won't marry American women...why would you do this to the poor guy. He would have to live with total humiliation under dehumanizing conditions if he did that. Have you no feeling for your fellow man???
