BECOME A TRUCK DRIVER: THE COMPLETE GUIDE
By Richard Crawford
Thinking about becoming a truck driver?
Before you invest thousands of dollars, quit your job, or climb into a cab, there's something you need first:
The truth.
Not recruiter promises.
Not social-media hype.
Not glossy success stories.
This book is written by a 39-year trucking veteran who has lived every stage of the industry - from rookie mistakes to long-term career survival. It's a clear, honest, no-nonsense guide to what trucking is really like, and how to build a career that lasts.
Inside, you'll learn:
- What trucking actually demands - mentally, physically, and personally
- How to choose the right CDL school and avoid costly mistakes
- How CDL training and permit testing really work
- What new drivers struggle with most in their first year - and how to get through it
- How trucking pay truly works (and what recruiters don't explain)
- How to earn more without burning out
- Which endorsements are worth getting - and which traps to avoid
- How to protect your CDL, your health, and your future income
- How to advance beyond entry-level driving and build long-term stability
This is not a "get rich quick" book.
It's a career survival manual for people who want to do trucking the right way.
If you're considering trucking as a career - or you've just earned your CDL and want to avoid becoming another statistic - this book gives you something rare:
Real guidance from someone who has already walked the road.
No hype.
No shortcuts.
No nonsense.
Just the knowledge you need to decide if trucking is right for you - and how to succeed if it is.
