The sole issue in this bankruptcy appeal is whether Alabama’s motor vehicle excise tax applies to vehicles that an Alabama company exerts control over but which are located and first used in another state. It is an issue of Alabama law. In Fleming Foods of Alabama, Inc. v. Department of Revenue, 648 So.2d 577 (Ala.1994), the Alabama Supreme Court stated that: “a use tax is not a tax on revenues generated from carrying on interstate business ... but is an excise tax imposed upon the privilege of storing, using, or otherwise *922consuming tangible personal property purchased at retail outside the state and domiciled in the state.” Id. at 579 (emphasis added). Given the plain meaning of those words, we agree with the district court that the tax is not applicable to the vehicles at issue in this case. The arguments of the Department of Revenue to the contrary are adequately answered in the district court’s thorough and well-reasoned memorandum opinion and order. Culverhouse, Inc. v. Ala. Dep’t of Revenue (In re Culverhouse, Inc.), 358 B.R. 806 (M.D.Ala.2006).
AFFIRMED.
