Same as the CDL and D & A testing, IRP (approtioned plates) is driven by GVWR not gross weight.
Log book, medical card, periodic inspection all kick in at 10,001 pounds or more in interstate commerce.
A two axle truck shouldn't have to deal with IFTA as IFTA kicks in with three or more axles or 54,000 pounds.
Be safe.
