    If you wait at least 6 months, before adding a tag axle, you are not required to pay the FET, as it is "after market".

    Our New Straight Truck !

    Hope this means we won't pay FET on our new dry box Cascadia!! Sorry, I was going to attach the IRS ruling but can't attach here from my photos. Ruling, as I read, says if the box, reefer or dry, is 24' or less, no FET?
