English term or phrase: power only trucking
Here is the sentence I need to translate:

• Power only is the mode of transportation in which they thrive.

I understand that this mode of transport seems to mean that the truck and the driver are included but I can't find an equivalent French term for this. Any help would be appreciated.

Explanation:
I think the actual term you need is going to depend on who exactly these 'they' are? Perhaps something like 'prestations de tractionnaire' etc.?
