Can you really make money with a pickup truck?

GoShare’s driving jobs page says $46 to $52 an hour for a pickup truck, and its drivers page says average earnings up to $60. Neither is a promise.

Its 2 pages do not match. Shift Tracker also points out that ‘average earnings up to’ mixes 2 ideas: an average and a ceiling are different things.

What you need

  1. The truck and the papersA valid licence, registration and at least your state’s minimum insurance, plus a background and driving history check.
  2. A bank accountGoShare pays weekly by direct deposit, and says the money arrives within 4 business days.
  3. Work near youYou choose jobs in the app, so check what is on offer in your area.

What the rate leaves out

Fuel and wear are yours. In the US, the IRS standard mileage rate for business is 76 cents a mile from 1 July to 31 December 2026, and was 72.5 cents before that. It lowers the income you are taxed on. It is not money paid to you.

Before you sign up

  • Work out what is left after fuel and wear, not what the rate says.
  • Check that GoShare runs in your city.
  • We could not read Lugg’s or Amazon Flex’s driver pages, so this covers GoShare only.
