True, but there is another cost there, opportunity cost. The week you take to drive cross country is a week that you aren't working and earning money. You're no longer paying the truck driver for his time, but you are now using your time. Overall, this self-move approach works for short moves of maybe 1-2 days time, but the moment a move will take more than a weekend, you're disrupting your earning opportunities. With self-driving trucks, you will be able to move for a few hundred dollars and be able to focus on employment.
