"There is so much to know if you want to be successful as an over the road truck driver, and most of it takes years to learn and understand. I'm not talking about shifting, steering, and braking. I'm talking about the things they don't teach in truck driving schools. Things the trucking companies won't talk openly about....at least not honestly.
There are gray areas and unwritten rules governing the trucking industry and they have a major impact on your life and your career. Only time on the road will reveal the realities of the trucking industry and the life of an over-the-road driver..." - Brett Aquila
If you're new to the trucking industry, or considering becoming a truck driver, this is the book for you!
This book is a no-holds-barred, call 'em as I see 'em account of what I went through from the moment I decided to become a truck driver over 20 years ago, til now - my entire career. I shed some light on what the transportation industry is really like, with no hidden agendas, no bitterness, and no regrets. I really enjoyed my years on the road - the friends, the money, the experiences, the challenges, and the freedom. It's a lifestyle I cherished from day one and if I had it to do it all over again, I would choose truck driving as a career without a doubt.....
But that doesn't mean truck driving is right for you.
In fact, it's not right for most people. The knowledge and experience I've gained throughout the years will help you decide if trucking is the right career choice for you. This book is full of funny stories, interesting insights, stark realities, and tons of great advice.
The main goals I had when writing this book were:
This book has had fantastic reviews from readers, and a money-back guarantee since day one - which has never once been requested. You are going to learn things about the trucking industry you would have never imagined were going on, and you're going to get answers to questions you would have never known to ask.
The trucking industry is a strange beast. You're going to need an honest source of unbiased information about the realities of life on the road before committing to a career in trucking, and that's exactly what this book will do for you.
