Is there a future?

Id imagine this post is asked often but I'm on the fence still.

I just graduated high school, 3.7 gpa and a few college pre req's already knocked out. Im not sure if college is what i want, I currently work for a body shop as a painter and make more than my family does but I'm not interested in doing that for the rest of my life.

Engineering and problem solving has always been huge for me, i can model in many CAD programs, building race cars, and 1000+ hours in cities skylines if you know what i mean.

So I ask, is there a job future in doing this? Is there enough money in this industry? Hows the work life? I couldnt stand being at my computer 24/7 despite working as many hours as I can.
