Truck driving is not an industry... NEW
by: Anonymous

... to get rich in. Especially now, and even more next year.

For the very, very large companies, their chances of making better profits are going to rise as soon as ELD's are mandated.

The ELD's will run the small companies and O.O.'s out of business. We all know that the only way to make money out here as an O.O or independent is to hustle. The ELD is going to take that freedom away.

This will drive out the little guy, drive up rates, and allow the larger companies to hire a better quality of driver...

Very sad, but you as a driver still wont get rich.

Kicking out $100,000 in a year or more will be virtually impossible.

I've done it. Stayed on the road all year to do it. In the end, you pay, somehow, someway.

Trucking Industry = Sad, Sadder, Saddest
