First Used Month of the vehicle

FUM of the vehicle is the month in which the heavy vehicle started using national highways within the United States. As per the IRS norms, the 2290 truck tax year begins on July 1 st and ends on June 30th of the following year.

Vehicle weight Category

Vehicle Category	Description
Taxable vehicle	Heavy vehicles with gross weight weighing 55,000lbs – over 75,000 lbs fall under the taxable vehicle category
Exempt vehicle	Vehicles weighing traveling less than 5,000 miles in a tax period are considered “Tax-exempt vehicles”
Logging vehicle	Highway Vehicles that are exclusively used to transport products harvested from forest sites are considered “Logging vehicles”

Among the above categories, choose the right one.
