Who it's for

  • Drivers with a CDL planning to go owner-operator in the next 12 months
  • Leased-on operators who want their own authority and their own numbers
  • Anyone about to sign a truck note who wants a second opinion before they do

Who it's not for

  • People who don't have a CDL yet — start with the free test prep
  • Anyone looking for a lease-purchase shortcut; this book argues against them
  • Fleets with 5+ trucks and a bookkeeper — you're past this

Built from the field

Every number in these handbooks comes from buying trucks, insuring them, financing them, and keeping them rolling — written by working fleet operators and diesel technicians, not from a business-school case study. The pricing math here is the same math we run on our own rigs.

What if it isn't for me?
14 days, full refund, no argument. See the refund policy for the details.
