Do they? I mean, trucks are hardly gas efficient, and aren't most roads maintained (supposedly) via gas taxes?
The question, I suppose, is how much harder they are on the roads relative to their fuel efficiency.

> road damage increases with the mass
Road damage actually increases proportional to mass^4 - trucks cause exponentially more damage than cars.https://streets.mn/2016/07/07/chart-of-the-day-vehicle-weigh...
The gas tax hasn't been increased since 1993 and accounts for less than half of road funding.
