Jplant4, road taxes aren't completely fair. My neighbors and I buy plenty of diesel fuel to use on our tractors and they never touch the highways. Does it really matter that some people pay no taxes and do use the highway?
What about all the electric car drivers who pay a significant amount of tax on their electricity usage plus special EV taxes to use the road? That's not fair either. They should be exempt from paying the tax on the electricity.
The reality is that the US has successfully reduced the amount of gasoline and diesel that we use annually. Almost every type of vehicle uses far less fuel than they used to. Sadly, not RVs as much.
