    Have seen what appears to be new CFI trucks and trailers in southern parts of Texas. Is CFI back in business? Any info will be appreciated. Thxs.

    Were they equipped with super singles or regular dual tires on the drives?

    It would be nice to see CFI in red T680's or T 700's. Still remember them with the red T600's and T2000's

    Yup, I still remember those red anteaters.
    From what I understand new CFI can't hold a candle to old CFI. But that was CB talk so who knows :(

    I read somewhere that old CFI and MS Carriers (bought by Swift) were top notch trucking companies, hope somebody can say more, I never worked there....

    I knew people who worked for both of those companies years ago. They all spoke highly of them. No reason, if given the chance, the new CFI can't be as good as the old CFI.
