What is fuel tax? AH,nevermind,I know what it is. Calculate is eazy. I count how many times I fart and if I fart more than I drive I will use more fuel and pay less tax,yes? :lol:

I use Tequila, calculator, my log books, truck stop directory which lists the total mileage for a road through a state.

THEN....I stomp around the house pissed off all day cursing at what a pain in the ass this is.

I actually do it in steps.

I get out my log book and write on a piece of paper that I delivered from point A to point B. I do this for every load I hauled.

Then I get into Maps and Streets and get directions for each load and see the route I took.

Then I get out my truck stop directory then put down all the miles for each road I took in each state.

I do this for every load then add up all the miles for every state.

Then I look at the starting mileage from my house to when I got home and any extra I just add here and there.

Then I get shit faced and take a nap.

Steve, get a small notebook or a small tape recorder and each time you cross a state line write it down. Keep each trip seperate in a packet or envelope. When you have time log it into a computer file.

When I was a company driver we had to keep track of the miles in each state, and that's how I did it, just do it as you go.

Ya, I know but I won't do it. It's just a pain for me to keep pulling out the notebook trying to write down states and mileage while I'm driving.

I'll just keep crabbing.

Well why didn't you say so, this is an easy one. Get a small notebook that has a set of hooters or Paris on it and you be anxious to pull it out. (the notebook that is :lol: )

Problem solved! now I can nap.
