While these features may add to the convenience of driving your semi truck, they also come with a price tag.

In addition to the purchase price of the truck itself, there are other costs associated with owning a semi truck such as fuel costs, insurance premiums, maintenance expenses and registration fees. Depending on your individual needs these costs can add up quickly.
