I just sent this email to the Arizona Tourism board, maybe others could do the same. Here is the email:
Dear Sirs,
It has recently come to the attention of the recreational vehicle (RV) community on a National RV Forum, that Arizona is stepping up their fuel tax enforcement on RV's over 26000 GVW or 3 axles. This probably includes about one third of the RV's visiting your State, including me.
Basically, the rule states that you can only buy fuel at a truck stop, at the truck island and pay the additional road taxes on a privately owned vehicle.
Many Snowburds, families and retirees visit your State every year. This would be a shame is this enforcement, which I doubt was intended for RV's, is continued and scares away visitors. Many of these large RV's carry sufficient fuel to traverse the State without stopping for fuel and other purchases at you fuel stations.
