Leo, you missed what I was saying tho. Ohio, Indiana, Kentucky, and I think Michigan don't charge all of their taxes when you buy the fuel. Rather, they wait until the end of the quarter then charge you the rest if what you owe. For example... lets say OH charges half at the pump. When you buy, you're credited for .14 of their .28 fuel taxes. You get hit for the other .14 when your company does your fuel taxes. I think that's deceptive and unfair. As Greg said, Mich hits you with some unsavory practices also.
