Now you guys have me all confused. Last time I was in Arizona I went through the regular car pumps and didn't get a ticket. But the question that seems to be most confusing is what weight are they using? My 35' two-axle Tropical has an empty weight of 23,480 according to the spec sheets. But it has a GVWR of 27,910. So which weight is AZ using to get to the 26,000 figure?
Also, I once tried to use a truck pump and the nozzle does not fit in my motorhome. There is a little tab a few inches in that used to have a screw in it to hold a chain that held the fuel cap. The chain broke years ago but the little tab is still in there and it prevents the large nozzle from going in more than an inch or so. I'd make a mess using the truck nozzle unless I got in there and cut that tab out somehow.
