TruckingTruth was founded by Brett Aquila (that's me!), a 15 year truck driving veteran, in January 2007. After 15 years on the road I wanted to help people understand the trucking industry and everything that came with the career and lifestyle of an over the road trucker. We'll help you make the right choices and prepare for a great start to your trucking career.
Becoming A Truck Driver is a dream we've all pondered at some point in our lives. We've all wondered if the adventure and challenges of life on the open road would suit us better than the ordinary day to day lives we've always known. At TruckingTruth we'll help you decide if trucking is right for you and help you get your career off to a great start.

Fellow truckers, I'm new to this way of life, I'm about to retire from the Army and currently on week 3 of CDL school permit in hand first time go thanks to the due diligence of this site and all the input from all. Y'all are awesome in my eyes. I'm committed to Knight Transportation dry van after a ton of looking, reading, talking with different companies. Long story short, Knight basically has what I am looking for and it just feels like a good place to earn my title amongst this site. Again without this site I do not think I would have been a first time go lol. Also, I should be conducting my Orientation and 4 week training in January. Not my first pick, but how my timeline is with retirement lol. So I look forward to being around for years to come. Thanks again y'all.
