We find ourselves filling up with half a tank of fuel to make it through the next leg where finding diesel is going to be a problem. For 5th-wheels the truck stops are the best choice but many of the Maverik gas stations are large and have good access. For gas stations we try to hit them in mid-morning after the commuters have filled up their vehicles as it is easier to get in and out when the pumps are relatively empty.
If you run into this a lot it may be worth investing in a larger main fuel tank or installing one in the bed of the truck. There are no aftermarket main tanks for my SWB 2011 diesel or I would buy one in a heartbeat simply for the piece of mind.
