Sheila’s Answer

Hello Arbi:

Diesel mechanics or technicians maintain and repair the diesel engines that power trucks, buses and other large vehicles.

The median annual wage for diesel service technicians and mechanics was $47,350 in May 2018. The median wage is the wage at which half the workers in an occupation earned more than that amount and half earned less. The lowest 10 percent earned less than $31,200, and the highest 10 percent earned more than $72,180.

Many diesel technicians, especially those employed by truck fleet dealers and repair shops, receive a commission in addition to their base salary.

I wish you much success on your journey. Good luck to you!
