Well I have never fueled both tanks up completly on my truck but I have been over on the farm and been really low on fuel and have run a gallon or two into the truck to get to the pilot in town but never have been checked. My brother in law owns a construction company and he was caught out at the texas road house pumping fuel out of a 100 gallon tank in the bed of his truck into his tanks, cop said as long as he was almost out of fuel and went directly to the fillin station he would let him go. Cops and DOT around here are ok. My father in law owns his own well drilling business and his rig is tagged on the road but is technically used "off road". Him and the other well drillers in the area have been fighting this one for years. DOT watches them tear down off a well and then pulls them over soon as they hit the road. Most rigs use a seperate moter to run the rig and another one to move the truck. So to me they should use off road in one and on road in the other but some rigs use the same motor for both. How do you decide that one??? I think the fuel this is horse sh*t. If you are a farmer and are staying in state you should be able to use off road in your farm trucks but is you are traveling across country you should use on road fuel, after all it is a "interstate" tax!!!! Off my soap box now.....
