With a bit more research I find that 10Ponies the gentleman that received the ticket for fueling at the wrong pump was filling his "toterhome". Toterhomes are not registered as Recreational Vehicles in Arizona; Toterhomes are registered as trucks. I was wondering why they had to "go over his paperwork".
Therefore according to AZ he was filling his three axle truck at the light class pump.
Now I ask, can anyone give an example of an RV registered mh being cited at the light class pumps....that is other than I know a guy whose uncles brother met a guy in a bar.
I can't stand it...this whole discussion including and especially the threadtitle that started it all is BASED ON SOMETHING THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN!!!! That being of course the (now revealed to be fictional) premise that some poor owner of a fifty thousand pound 200k class A was ticketed for refusing to pay an extra eight cents at the pumps.
Well, brace yerselves...when that toterhome fella goes to Court he'll likely be using the argument that if he has to pay, so do three axle diesel Class As. And he's right! Thing is...if he wins that argument and gets off the hook, it seems likely to me that Arizona's response is going to be to simply shut down any such "loophole" in the next legislative session.
This due at least in part to the indignant letters from Class A owners on the subject. Who knew they were so numerous on Arizona's roads?
Congratulations- y'all may have just created a "problem" for yourselves that didn't even exist! :S
I believe if you look, you will see a second person who was cited. I believe he was from Texas.
O.K., I looked. Can't find a second citation, or ANY citation there for a Class A. There is one post from a guy who reports that in his case as an A-er, he was actually REFUNDED the eight cents by the clerk at a station.
I'd add that the whole discussion is posted in the 'Heavy duty trucks" section of that forum, and nearly all posts are from fellas that own those, here referred to as "toters".
Sorry, but the post I referenced was in the other thread on this subject. Also, don't know where I got the Texas idea. Here it is:

There was a post on Escapee's website that said he got a ticket at a truck stop in PHX.
He stated that he went to pump gas and someone came out and said he was at the wrong pump,
He said after pumping some diesel a man came over and gave him a ticket. I told him to call and protest it and not pay it but He has not replyed. He stated he lives in Phx az.
Just noticed that the post was under the category HDT which I think is Heavy duty transport.
