    Is this still the case of weight requirments =What is the KYU number?
    The KYU number is a tax license issued for the Kentucky Weight Distance Tax. Any motor carrier 60,000 pounds or greater traveling Kentucky is subject to this tax. Right now the tax is computed at $0.0285 cents per mile. so under 60k no worries?

    If your truck is registered for 60k I dont think you need it. If youre registered for 80 but happen to be hauling 60, you need it.

    That's my understanding anyway

    FOUND THIS ON KY STATE SITE= [TABLE="class: ms-listviewtable ms-listviewtable2, width: 100%"]
    [TR]
    [TD="class: ms-vb2"]Q: Is the KYU number the same as IFTA?
    [/TD]
    [TD="class: ms-vb2 ms-vb-lastCell"]A: No. [​IMG]KRS 138.660. establishes the fuel tax, surtax, and Kentucky Weight Distance Tax (KYU) You cannot pay for KYU on your IFTA tax form. IFTA is a fuel tax based on the fuel consumed by a vehicle within a certain IFTA jurisdiction. IFTA taxable vehicles start at over 26,000 pounds or has 3 or more axles regardless of weight. KYU however, is a highway usage tax that is based purely on KY mileage. KYU taxable vehicles start at over 59,999 pounds. If your vehicle is over 59,999 pounds, you will need to pay both.
