I've been looking into a career change to become a truck driver. However, I'm 5'3" and am concerned I'm too short. Some of the companies I've looked into have adjustable seats, but am I too short?

No - you're definately not too short. I happen to live in a trucking town... and seem to meet more truckers than I do anyone else. Several of them around here are only that height... in fact I know one from around here who would be shorter than 5'3", and is considered to be good at what he does.
Enjoy life on the road... and be a short truck driver with a cool nickname to match ;)

you're not too short. there are adjustable seats and steering wheels. consider a truck that is automatic if possible that'll be easier for you.

i could advise a motor vehicle like the GMC Acadia. It’s a crossover SUV yet has seating for 8. All of GM’s motor vehicle pages supply you the size and length of each and every motor vehicle so which you will pick for your self how plenty area you like. Laura GM client provider

there are women less than 5 ft that drive,besides as all good truckers know its not the size of the driver its the size of the "RADIO" that matters ! when you are swinging 1000 watts through a polishied "MONKEY MADE " antenna at THE WEST MEMPHIS McDONALD'S ,I don't care if you are MINI ME,YOU WILL BE 10ft tall!!
