Answer:

Owner-operators may take in over $260,000 in gross revenue, but once you deduct expenses, maintenance and all of the costs that go along with running a truck, many don’t earn much more than experienced company drivers. It costs about $180,000 per year to run a commercial truck. Operating costs in the trucking industry are about $1.38 per mile.
