Different Trucking Options


Recommended Posts

I would love to see different ways to do trucking. For example use the current trucking missions, for new truckers. However, give them the option to buy their own trailer. (wouldn't be cheep).  Could give them more options here, with a tanker or normal trailer, flat bed, ect.) This would add so much to this career.

When someone uses their own trailer, the missions change. Now you can go to a store, buy/order bulk items that will fill your trailer. The catch here is, you have to pay for the items. However, because there is much more of an investment and risk coming from the driver. The pay should be much better than it is currently. Think like the delivery missions, but in bulk, because your investment and risk is so much higher, you should get a higher percentage in return per item sold.

Could set it up, so one mission might take you across the whole map, to sell everything in your full trailer. While others might have you buy different products,  and you need make 2-5 stops with one trailer load. This would also be very scale able. However not broken.  This should very profitable, due to the  high risk and investment. If you're not sure the risk I'm talking about, its the fact that if your trailer gets destroyed or you die, you lose everything in that trailer. So if you invested 50k - 100k in the product in the trailer, you'd lose all of it. That's a lot of money to put on the line. However, make it to your destination and sell your inventory, maybe make somewhere between 110k - 220k in gross. (This would need to be balanced, just an example.)

I think the ability to  buy your own trailer, then invest more by buying product, would add so much to this job for the better! As of right now i make 15-30k per hour in trucking. For the 125k investment, I feel this is a bit low. However having  more options to increase my potential earnings per hour would be amazing. And add some decision making.
