And if you happen to have a truck that gets really good fuel mileage, and a quarter where you do alot of empty miles to make your mileage even better....let's say better than what they think you should be getting, they will think you are cheating on your IFTA and you will get audited. Been there done that.
Correct. NY seems to have no objection to us overpaying our HUT.

While we're back on the subject of freight lanes, I recently read an interesting report from the Brookings Institute & JPMorgan Chase that some may find interesting: http://www.brookings.edu/research/reports2/2014/11/06-mapping-freight-tomer-kane Did you know that 80% of the country's freight goes to/from one of the 100 largest metropolitan areas?
The data was based on freight value, not tonnage, but the graphical presentation was well done:
A look at the freight densities (again by value) between various metro areas:
Cities like New York and Los Angeles do significant portion of their trade on just a few lanes -- many nearby:
Mid-Western hubs, like Kansas City, tend to have a more uniform distribution of trade:
Of the ~90,000 corridors, more than 40% of the overall trade value travels on just 888 lanes:
Unfortunately, those lanes tend to be the most congested:
