    That's why they want driverless cars... So they are fully electronic. And easy to track and control everyone...

    The company I haul for does that... I send them my receipts and keep all the receipts in a folder at home.... I've been doing this owner stuff for just about a year.

    Yes. In a cmv if the wheels are turning in a state you're on the hook. Like per mileage tax. Ifta applies too.
     
    Coffey, PE_T and White_lightning1983 Thank this.

    I guess I need to learn one day. They take 1/3 of my cut... Which is a lot.... I'd rather take 85%+
