Here's an interesting thread on this very subject from 2012:

People on this thread are saying RV's are exempt, yet nobody offers legal authority for why they say they are exempt. But what I found the most entertaining was the second to the last post in the thread posted by "lbligh" and states the following:
"NOT true. The AZ fuel tax being discussed applies only to commercial vehicles. RVs are exempt. If you fill at a truck facility you simply go inside and advise them that you are a non-commercial vehicle and they will deduct/refund the $0.08 per gallon tax."
Indeed, I did say that. However, I contacted ADOT when their pump label seemed to contradict what had been communicated to me by a truck stop manager and was informed that the law did apply to RVs and that they were not exempt and was referred to that pesky statute you like so much ARS 28-5432. See, some of us can learn, some others seem not to be able to.
