Arizona road tax on 3 axle MHs over 26,000 Lbs

I have seen and been intimidated by the postings on most all diesel pumps in AZ with the label stating that if you are three axles or over 26,000Lbs you must use a truck pump and pay the additional 18 cents tax. I just did some searching and find the following explanation.

As you will read in the above post our MHs are exempt from this additional tax and can thus use the RV pumps that do not charge this added tax. As it also says though, if you wish to use the truck pumps you will likely have to pay this tax.
  • This ugly rumor has been put to rest many times.

    Does NOT apply to motorhomes.

    And all you have to do is go inside and get the tax refunded to you.

    As 'two-niner' said, this subject has been covered extensively here.
