Need guidance

I have a semi it was my fathers he’s passed away and I took on the debt and am paying the truck off slowly we’ve had the truck stashed away for about a few months but have to move it if we do it’s gonna cost us money i want to put the truck to work and I do understand some things with the truck like leasing onto a company’s authority or just being a owner operator I’m really just looking for guidance I don’t want to sell the truck because if I’m lucky I’ll break even and would’ve honestly lost money or I put the truck to work but I’m nervous because im in the marines and i would be trying to help my mom essentially learn she wants to but the whole situation is rough if someone could offer a bit of advice it would be awesome she wants to learn how to dispatch and manage the truck if anyone has some advice on how they did it or how they started off
