    Yeah, it’s tricky though because road damage from weight isn’t a linear thing, but also, trucks aren’t just out there for fun, they’re out there to put products on shelves for consumption.

    So if you tax truck registration in Ohio, but then big trucking companies will just register in Mississippi like rental car companies do.

    Tax diesel and that will impact a bunch of non semi vehicles.

    Hard to make a one size fits all cost.

      Tax tires. Tire replacement/cost is directly correlated with amount of use and weight.
