    There are several that do that.

    Also, there are lots of Mexican trucks that come to Corpus Christi to load propane, gasoline, and diesel and take it back across the border.

    There is a different standard for HazMat. Polite elected society is willing to let Pablo, the illegal, drive 80,000 lbs of Sunny Delight to a distribution station. They are not yet willing to let random Pablos drive 80,000 lbs of liquid nitrogen or ammonium nitrate.

    No real preference for any particular type of tank...I kind of prefer to not have to deal with hoses and pumping off...I don't have HazMat endorsement though...I would consider getting it at some point though.

    I didn't know there were rules that dictated what foreign-domiciled drivers were allowed to haul or not haul. Got a link?
