Later hauling Cities Service Gas and Fuel down east and to Aroostook County.
Milton made many trips from Searsport to Fort Kent hauling Shell Oil products to Daigle Oil Company. He was very proud to have driven 5 million miles plus without a chargeable accident.
Milton and his cousin Edward and son David Dysart started Dysart’s Truck Stop in 1967. He was the cashier days and mechanic nights in the garage for several years.
