What if I buy a 2007, with inservice date feb... Will I be okay? Or will the excise tax still effect me?
Re-read what I wrote. ANY vehicle put into service (ie has an in-service date) after March 20, 2007 is subject to it. Doesnt matter if it's an 06 or an 08. Since February 2007 is before March 2007, no you do not have to pay the fuel tax.
