With a three axle I can gross 93,500 without any permits, sure wouldn't be afraid of that with your rig.
I can permit for another 25% without any trouble.

Do i need a company with contracts? I saw DAT loadboard is very bad at rates

Now this makes me wonder why you want an rgn. Do you have work for it, they are by nature for specialized freight and equipment, a whole different ballgame than standard run of the mill freight. There is at times big bucks to be made, with one, but if you are just going by the seat of your pants and trying to just stay loaded, you will not just be backing up, but will be messing up rates for guys that specialize in rgn/double drop freight.
It also costs more to drag an rgn around than it does a flat. -
Was just a question for my own knowledge. Thank you for your response

I ask, because, like I said, it cost more to pull a rgn than a flat. There is a lot, many times more flat freight than rgn freight. The rgn freight will pay better because you can haul some taller freight than a flat or step, without a permit, but I would hate to only have an rgn and try getting by on legal loads, the money is permit loads, tall wide or heavy, all of which a guy not only needs a little knowledge of, but many shippers and even brokers want to know this isn't your first 24 foot wide or 17 foot tall load, it is a game you kind of have to prove yourself to do any good in.
I am by no means trying to tell you that you don't need one, just letting you know a little that I have seen over the years, if you have been running them and know what I am talking about, ignore me. lol -
Make some custom ones.
