Depending which way you move the truck..wyoming will sell you a permit at the port..tell them you are less than 26000 lbs..new Mexico might want you to buy a permit..its more about paying the fuel tax than anything...if you are worried..buy a trip permit in each stste...including texas..they aren't much.. And a lot cheaper than paying the fine plus buying the trip permits..you also need proof of trucking liability insurance..
