What kind of truck are you looking at?
And what kind of loads do you want for your truck?
I think you need to narrow it down to the industry you are interested in or the industry where there's a high call rate for haulage.
There's a high call rate for haulage of incoming and outgoing goods at the Seaport, thus flat bed trucks for 20ft single / double and 40ft flat beds will be a good option. Aside container haulage, they can be used for cement, steel, jumbo paper rolls, wood etc.
Also factories, breweries, manufacturing* importers, warehouses, fast moving consumer goods distributors, have a good cause to utilize trucks for deliveries to departmental stores, large supply chain houses etc. Boxed trucks, refrigerated trucks come in handy.
I also think joining a truckers association will make it easier to also get job calls.
