    I've been conversing with the folks from the above company and like what I've heard. I've not run acroos any of their o/o's on the road yet, so I still need to pursue that vein of info.. So, I'm wondering if anyone on this forum as past/present experience with them?

    I did some numbers crunching, and decided I'd better stay where I am (Crete Carrier). Also, since this economic fall-out has begun, I felt my business would be better off remaining associated with a financialy stable company.

    Not that RFX is not stable in itself. I really don't know them, and that's my worry.

    Good Luck

    I would greatly appreciate updates on your experience with them.

    I too was given the revenue for three trucks. However, once I divided revenue and total miles, then took into account they offer no fuel, tire, & no tractor purchase discounts, it did not pan out any better.

    I wish you success!

    Well, those numbers sound good on the surface, but do they include the fuel surcharge, or are they base pay before percentage reductions? What are the charges from your company?? Base plates? Permits? Accounting?? There are too many variables left to be examined.
    I do hope it works well. I too would like more info on this company if they reputable.
