The guy I talked to who just left Miller has an older Pete and was paid percentage running dedicated regional loads. I'm not sure how he knows he would get less, but I'm pretty sure he looked into it pretty good. He doesn't seem like the type to make a jump like that on emotion. It was all about the money from what he said. Again, just fwiw, it didn't seem like he had anything against Heniff, but definitely thought he found a better deal than Miller.
Heard a rumor Heniff is buying Miller and MILs

This was announced last Nov or Dec. The merger was scheduled to be completed by beginning of June, but I'm seeing mixing of trailers already. Heniff buying Miller was a opportunity deal. When the owners 2 heirs died last year the owner no longer wanted to run the company full time and Bob from Heniff evidently made an offer at just the right time.
slim shady and Orange713 Thank this. -
So who is the top 5 in size for chemical tankers?
-
I think it’s
1, Kenan
2. Quailty
3. Trimac
4. I’m guessing Heniff now
5. Either going to be QuestLiner/ Foodliner or Superior. -
Wonder what will happen to MILS in Moss Point...
-
I imagine they will become Heniff.

That announcement happened pretty quickly after the deaths. If I remember correctly, they were on their way home from either the Auburn v Miss State football game in early October or the Auburn v Ole Miss game in late October, and were involved in a wreck.scythe08 and ChicagoJohn Thank this.

I don't remember the exact story but both son in laws died very closer together. One died in the car crash and I thought the other died of a heart attack like a couple of weeks before the crash.
I believe this was a perfectly timed offer. Bob Jr has been trying to become as big as or bigger then QC and this was an opportunity. Jr has Heniff so leveraged, I can't figure out how he came up with the financing.88 Alpha Thanks this. -
What about Dana, they've got to be I the top 5
I'm guessing
Kenan
QC
Trimac
Dana
Heniff/Miller -
Dana runs under 3 different authorities. Dana Transport, Suttles and LTC. Dana Companies Inc makes more money from their trailer leasing operations than all of the trucking companies combined.
