I am sure many of you hotshot guys are apportioned and have IFTA. Many also likely use your truck as your primary means of transportation.
I have apportioned plates on my semi and know what all it entails but I only have to keep up with it when hauling loads. My question is how do you keep up with it on a daily driver taking kids to school, running around town, going to stores, etc. Are you using some automated system or manually filling out papers every time you drive the truck even if not hauling/logging ?
IFTA / IRP daily driver

All miles are counted, it is about taxing distance within a state, not whether or not it is hauling or deadhead.

I am considering getting a pickup and towing a tandem dual trailer and putting apportioned plates and IFTA stickers on it. When not hauling I would be using the pickup as my daily driver. I know all the miles have to be reported I was wondering how difficult this is to do or if anyone has a good way of keeping up with it in this scenario. -

Log all miles.Easier that way.

I would not even bother with IFTA or IRP but when I do haul loads it is usually out of state into a state that limits the number of trip permits you can buy per year.

There's a difference between IFTA miles, and personal conveyance miles. Personal conveyance is taxed at the pump in my state. As instructed by IFTA, I do not have to report personal conveyance miles in my pickup. And yes my pickup has apportioned license plates on it also. IFTA offices in other states might tell you something different? I'd suggest that you call your local IFTA office direct and ask the same question.
