Suggestion Title: Trucking as a job
Suggestion Description: So this suggestion is very broad, in the sense that I have an idea on how it can be integrated into the server but it can be played around with to make it a good fit, so if you see other ways in how trucking could be added please reply with them down below. I'll name the way I see it being added:

Resupplying the PPS station - Couriers deliver stuff from their station to players and stores alike, but where to they get that stuff? Currently it goes like this: Store -> Courier -> Player/Another store. I
magine if you add a trucking job, the delivery process can look like this instead:
Supplier of said item (Ol' Stool for furniture, Hammer Plus for materials and etc..) -> Truck driver picks it up > PPS Station -> Courier -> Player/Another store.
I think adding this would add something new to the server, that's not a whole new mechanic or too much of a game-changing addition. It can impact the game if nobody picks it up and the courier can't deliver stuff because they don't have them in stock. Obviously it can be tweaked around with for balancing purposes. I don't think it needs to be a big truck, something a bit bigger than the PPS Van, I'll attach a photo down below for reference.

Why should this be added?:
- A new civilian job
- Another way to earn money that isn't powergrowing or being on cop

What negatives could this have?:
- I imagine this would take quite a lot of time from the devs
- If nobody is playing this job then people can't order stuff (the delivery app would say they're out of stock for example)

What problem would this suggestion solve?: People wanting more civilian jobs, something new to do.

I mean having two people work two different jobs in order to make deliveries happen would harm people wanting to play courier, especially at lower playercounts. I do see how it would make the process somewhat more realistic(rn it happens "in the background" I guess), but it seems the job would pretty much be the same as Courier, just without any player to player interaction(?), so I don't think adding it would improve the experience.
