Truck & Vehicle Cost Calculator

Get a full monthly picture of what your truck actually costs to keep on the road. Enter your loan or lease payment, fuel, insurance, maintenance, and tire costs alongside your monthly miles and loads — see total monthly cost, cost per mile, and cost per load in one place.

Truck & Vehicle Cost Calculator — Frequently Asked Questions

This one gives a fuller monthly picture including cost per load, not just cost per mile — useful when you're thinking about the truck as a whole rather than pricing one specific load. Use whichever view matches the decision you're making.

Tires are usually bought a few at a time rather than every month, so entering an annual figure and letting the calculator divide it out gives a more realistic monthly average than guessing a monthly tire budget directly.

Use your actual average monthly spend here for a quick operating snapshot. For a more deliberate sinking-fund approach broken into tires, oil, brakes, and major repairs separately, use the Maintenance Reserve Calculator on this site.

It's a simple average — total monthly cost divided by number of loads — so it works best when your loads are reasonably similar in length. For a specific load, the Load Profitability Calculator gives a more precise number.

No — this is strictly the cost of operating the vehicle. Combine it with the Owner-Operator vs Company Driver Calculator if you want to see how vehicle costs affect your take-home comparison.
