Leo,
Thanks for the info. Since I drive for an O/O I hadn't thought about the tax issue when purchasing fuel, simply the pump price. I will pay more attention now. Also I do want to get my own truck someday so I have a question. When it comes to fuel taxes, is a "D" unit based on the trucks GVWR, or what you can haul. Say I have a truck that GVWR of 32000, but due to size of box the company considers me a "C" unit, will I have to pay fuel taxes?
