    Sorry don't know anything about them.

    No, don't know them. I know there is a lot of milk tankers out there. Some come to Dillons in Hutch with their milk.

    We had one with just a little more capacity than that one. Got it up to 97k on one job. It had full sized drop axles on it though.

    One more week of hauling wheat after that's done not sure what will be going on. It seems like more grain is moving but haven't checked in a few weeks. If we don't have a freeze should have good wheat crop... maybe chance of rain around Monday or Tuesday.

    Price of fuel is around $4 here not sure what it is elsewhere.
