Gas is readily available out west. The stations are just farther apart. Start looking at a half tank and don't be brand specific. I drive a 'C' and pull a toad 4 down. I have more trouble finding a gas station that I can pull thru since I can't back up.
The only place I had trouble finding gas was on I-15 between Great Falls and Sweetgrass, MT. Seemed like every exit sign said "No Services". Lots of big ranches and they have their own tanks for their machinery.
And that's 118 miles, so the strategy is to fill up at either end before starting the trip. Much like venturing out in Nevada, you don't leave Las Vegas, Reno, or Carson City with only a 1/4 tank. You fill on the way out.
