Really folks, this issue can be beat to death but it really only boils down to whether you feel lucky when you're refueling. The purpose of the post was to alert unsuspecting RVers of the law. According to the guy I talked to, they are stepping up enforcement of the tax law. If you feel it doesn't apply to you, go ahead and fuel up wherever you want. That said, if YOUR INTERPRETATION differs from the person with the ticket book, don't complain about your vacation being ruined....just sayin....Dennis
Dennis,
I, for one, thank you for bringing this to my attention. The signage, if it truly exists on the pumps (because we never noticed any) needs some serious improvement given the horrific nature of the fines here. We will certainly take this into consideration the next time we cross Arizona. What's sad is that the convenient places are off limits to us now.
Bob,
I will guarantee you that the posting at each pump exists and it is very clear. The posting details
ALL exceptions. An example would be non-profits. A non-profit is exempt. They could be driving a tank and as long as it is registered to a non-profit organization, they are exempt from the tax. If they had intended to include RVs they would have listed them just as they did all other exceptions. They also detail exactly what is included. Any vehicle over 26,000 lbs or more than two axles.
