    If you are leased to someone, you run their base plate unless you have your own through your own authority.

    Again, a personal dot is your own authority.

    If you want your own base plates.

    When I was leased to 2 different companies, I used their plates and authority. Their IFTA and trailers. It was my truck.

    Are you going to run under their authority?

    If so, do they supply the base plate and authority #'s?

    Better to deal with the company. Call them and tell them what is happening.
