No Promotions or Selling Allowed...
This will not become a spam dumpster. If you have something to promote you first must achieve a certain tier. (Yet to be determined) And at that point you will have to submitted a request and we will actually interview you on what you have to offer. The exception is trucking gear and equipment. There is a place that you can post trucking gear and equipment. (If you joined to pitch, sale, abuse the community, you might as well turn around now.) The workaround and shortcut to that, is to become a Founding Member. More on that Later. Meanwhile welcome and enjoy! Hervy

Welcome to Off Duty Truckers
Start Here – Welcome to Off Duty Truckers Welcome. You’re here because you’re thinking beyond just driving more miles. Off Duty Truckers is a space for drivers who want real options — not hype, not pressure, and not “get rich quick” nonsense. What we focus on here: - Off-duty income ideas (while you’re still driving) - Long-term thinking - Honest conversations about money, time, relationships and lifestyle - Practical paths out of trucking — when and if that makes sense for you This is not a hype group. No gurus. No pressure. No selling in the main feed. I’ve been in trucking for 20+ years. I’ve left, come back, invested, experimented, and learned the hard way. This community exists so drivers can think ahead without being judged for it. How to get the most out of this group Start by introducing yourself below 👇 You don’t need a life story. Just share: - How long you’ve been trucking - What you’re running (company / O/O / lease) - What you’re curious about outside of driving If you want, post a pic of your truck — inside, outside, or both. Optional question: 👉 If there were a yearly Off Duty Truckers meetup, how would you feel about Puerto Plata, DR? After that: 1. Ask real questions 2. Read the pinned “Guidelines” post 3. Share what you’re learning along the way I go live for Q&A and discussion periodically. Show up if you can. Catch the replay if you can’t. Think long-term. Stay grounded. Make an effort. Glad you’re here. — Hervy

If trucking rates improve, what's the smartest move drivers can make?
After nearly four years of weak freight, trucking rates are finally starting to improve. The big question is: What should drivers and owner-operators do with the extra money if the market continues to recover? Some say pay off debt. Some say save for the next downturn. Others say invest in a business, side hustle, or retirement plan. A few will probably buy chrome and chicken lights. 😄 Seriously though... If freight rates stay strong for a while: - Would you save or spend? - Would you buy another truck? - Would you invest outside of trucking? - What lesson did you learn from the last freight downturn? One thing trucking has taught many of us is that good times don't last forever. What advice would you give drivers who are finally seeing better freight rates again? 👇 Share your thoughts and experiences below.

Are self-driving trucks a threat to drivers, or just another tool?
Every few years, trucking gets hit with a new technology that's supposedly going to change everything. This time it's autonomous trucks. Congress is considering legislation that would create national standards for self-driving commercial trucks while also funding retraining programs for workers affected by automation. Some drivers think autonomous trucks are decades away from replacing people. Others believe the industry is slowly moving in that direction whether we like it or not. What do you think? - Would you trust a self-driving truck running next to you on the interstate? - Do you think automation will eliminate jobs or create new opportunities? - If technology changes trucking, what new skills should drivers start learning now? - Are lawmakers moving too fast or too slow? There are no right or wrong answers here. Let's hear from drivers, owner-operators, dispatchers, and anyone else who has an opinion. 👇 Drop your thoughts below.
