If you are willing to hunt down back issues, there was an 80s series from Marvel called US 1 that featured trucking as a theme...

There's also the character Razorback from Marvel, created in 1977.

I've heard good comments about Ghost Fleet. It was published in a collected format not too long ago. Speaking as a dad, you may want to check and make sure it's suitable for a 6-year-old. Some of the reviews I've read describe it as brutal and bloody at times.
[B][I]Trucker **** in Denial by Jim Goad and Jim Blanchard
Edit: didn't see this being for a six year old. Definitely not appropriate then.[/I][/B]
[I]Death or Glory[/I], a mini-series which is nearing the end of its run, is about truckers. However, it is a 17+ comic, so it is definitely not appropriate for a 6-year-old. Maybe a 6-year-old who likes cars and trucks would enjoy a comic like [I]Transformers[/I]?

Ha, yeah that’s true! :o
SEA OF STARS is cool father/son story, at least!
Didn't the most recent Hyperion series have him as a trucker? No idea if it is appropriate for a six year old, though.
Green Lantern Hal Jordan took up being a trucker in the late 70's V.2 around issue #100

And of course he can't just haul vegetables, or refrigerators,, it's got to be outrageously dangerous like explosives during a thunder storm..., cause he's Hal (fearless) Jordan

He even had a sidekick Itty the alien starfish.

And after he was done, it made perfect sense, he still kept his Power Battery in his truck, ............. in orbit, in space!: p
Lasted to about to issue #118 - [url]https://i.imgur.com/buJwUAU.jpg[/url]
Deep down he's got to go back to be a star pilot at heart. .
