Fueling up on trips
We tow a 30 foot TT and always face the issue of finding a filling station where we can get in, fill up and get out. So many places have pumps close to their buildings with access to all but maybe one...

I don't want to be a troll about this, but if you're having trouble getting in and out of a Flying J you really need to seriously upgrade your RV driving skills. We are over 44' with the Bus, tow a long bed extended cab pickup with a 4'+ hitch and get in and out of local stations and "Quickstops" all over the country, Canada, and Alaska. Yes, sometimes you need to wait for the fool who parked with his vehicle way out of a spot while he gets hes cigs and lottery ticket, but I've NEVER had to unhook at a gas stop. Sometimes we do get DW out to check if the fuel hose will reach and sometimes I will block an adjacent pump or part of an entrance/exit, but this is very seldom. Please, please, please drive more. Practice your skills in a parking lot or open field. It'll also save you money on body work and keep your blood pressure and stress level down.
