Sorry, I added local to my post. Didn't want people to think a big outfit went under. They were just a 7 truck outfit that came from SW Kansas. They were a pain to us locals, just butchered the rates here. They put some good outfits out of business.
It would be nice if one of the big bottom feeders went under but not sure that will be anytime soon.

Talking to Sun Valley owner yesterday. He said he was talking to Mexicans that used to run for Mueller. Evidently Mueller went under. Didn't see any of their trucks at harvest wondered about it. I saw those trucks too at Stafford think they hauled from that area. They pulled spreads behind them.
-
I've been hauling through Stafford and wondered what 2 perfectly good trucks and trailers wearer doing sitting at harvest and honestly I think I've seen these mueller trucks at some point in tine but maybe they were on bull wagons
-
Could be they pulled those too. Some hopper outfits haul gasoline and chemicals. Keeps them busy during the winter.
-
My dad has had so many run ins with mueller its not even funny lol. They are farmers out of hugoton ks. They had alot of amigos leased to them.
-
There safestat score reflects that. They were on the inspect list because of OOS trucks and drivers.
