    Do you have a dedicated run for this trailer?

    only reason I ask is, I was presented a opportunity in 2017 for a 2 axle RGN. I bought 1 and ran that opportunity and mixed in broker freight with it. Did great between that and my step deck. Late 2018 the deal I got it for dried up, along with almost every good rate in the spot market for a 2 axle RGN. Sold it and went back to step decking. Tons of people that use a RGN as a flat/step hauling cheap freight, hauling RGN only freight for cheap also in the spot market. Definitely some good RGN freight out there right now not going to deny that. This is just my input, you may have a different experience.

    40 ton 2 axle won't do you any good unless you've got a 4 axle tractor.
