In the wide-open plains of Fort Lupton, Colorado, where the hum of diesel engines and the call of the open road define a way of life, the trucking community is reeling from an unbearable loss. Ramon Muñoz, a beloved truck driver, mentor, and the proud owner of RM Low Trucking, has passed away, leaving behind a legacy of kindness, resilience, and an aching void in the hearts of those who knew him. Known affectionately as the “OG Trucker in Colorado,” Ramon’s life was cut short by his own hand, a devastating act driven by the relentless weight of anonymous online harassment. His story, rooted in the rugged landscapes of Chihuahua, Mexico, and woven into the fabric of Colorado’s tight-knit trucking world, is one of triumph, tragedy, and a stark reminder of the human toll of cruelty in the digital age.

Ramon Muñoz was no ordinary trucker. Born in Chihuahua, Mexico, he carried the spirit of his homeland—a fierce work ethic, a deep love for family, and an unshakable commitment to those around him—across borders and into the heart of Colorado’s trucking industry. As the founder of RM Low Trucking, established in 2015, Ramon built more than a business; he crafted a legacy. His fleet, including his cherished ‘07 LBZ, ‘99 Whitey, ‘04 Joe Gibbs, ‘01 6NZ 379, and ‘15 LML, was a testament to his passion for the trade. But beyond the chrome and horsepower, Ramon was a beacon of light. His infectious humor, warm smile, and readiness to lend a hand made him a mentor to aspiring drivers, a friend to colleagues, and a pillar in his community. “He was the kind of person who’d stop everything to help you out,” one fellow trucker recalled, voice heavy with grief. “He didn’t just drive trucks—he carried people through tough times.”

Yet, beneath his vibrant exterior, Ramon faced a silent battle. On a platform known as the “Tea App,” a digital space meant for connection, he became the target of vicious, anonymous cyberbullying. Faceless voices spewed lies and venom, attacking his character, his business, and his spirit. The cruelty was relentless, chipping away at a man who, to the world, seemed unbreakable. Marlene Rodriguez, a close friend, poured out her anguish in the wake of his death: “Someone took their life due to cyberbullying… This was someone’s loved one, and you hurt people, lied on his name anonymously for what?” Her words echo the pain of a community blindsided by loss, grappling with the senselessness of it all. The Tea App, a place where truckers once shared stories and camaraderie, became a weapon that tore at Ramon’s soul, leaving wounds no one could see until it was too late.

Ramon’s death by suicide has sent shockwaves through Fort Lupton and beyond, igniting a firestorm of grief and outrage. The Colorado trucking community, a family bound by long hauls and shared struggles, is mourning a man who embodied its heart. Social media posts from friends and admirers paint a vivid picture of his impact: “Ramon Muñoz, entrepreneur and innovator, a brother to us all,” one tribute read. Another called him “a legend whose laughter could light up the darkest roads.” His passing has also sparked a broader conversation about the devastating power of online harassment. In an industry where toughness is a badge of honor, Ramon’s story lays bare a painful truth: even the strongest among us can be broken by words wielded as weapons.

As the sun sets over the Rockies, casting long shadows across the highways Ramon once traveled, his community vows to keep his memory alive. They remember a man who poured his heart into every mile, who built a business from the ground up, and who never hesitated to uplift those around him. RM Low Trucking, with its proud fleet and loyal following, stands as a monument to his dedication. But more than that, Ramon’s legacy is in the lives he touched—the drivers he mentored, the friends he cherished, and the family he held dear. His story is a call to action, a plea for compassion in a world too often marred by cruelty. The Colorado trucking community will carry on, but the road will feel emptier without Ramon Muñoz, the OG Trucker whose spirit will forever ride alongside them.
