Of course, transport trucking is one of the most common ways to make a living driving, and even if you do not like the idea of driving a semi for a company and having to load and unload your cargo, there is also the option of finding a job driving for a moving company; while some moving companies will require that you also load and unload the truck, there are others that simply hire drivers to drive the loads cross-country.
If driving something as big as a semi or a moving truck is not up your alley, another thing to look into is jobs for which you can get paid for driving in front of or behind these large loads; you have probably noticed big semis with a car in front of and behind it, each sporting the "wide load" sign, but what you may not have registered is that these "pilot drivers" are paid to drive cross-country in their own car, either leading the wide loads or bringing up the rear.
And if you are not especially wanting to make a living driving, but think it would be fun to make a bit of extra money driving (or simply want to get a trip paid for!), you should consider contacting rental agencies and car dealerships - or even looking online for individual people who have a need you can fill - as there are often opportunities to drive a car across the country for a company or a person who needs someone to do this.
Of course, driving long distances is not something everyone enjoys, but if it is something you enjoy, it is worth looking for a way that you can do this and get paid by those others who do not enjoy it and need someone else to do it for them!
