RV Folks,
I've recently switched from a DP to a Gas RV. Lots of pros/cons etc, however there is one thing that is rapidly landing in the cons column that I would love some advice on.
Where do you all fill up with gas? How are you fining gas stations with gasoline in the truck lanes?
This is why I'm asking. When we had our DP, it was a little frustrating having to fine gas stations with diesel, but I could always swing through the truck lanes when they were available. I had a gas RV now, and I'm finding it VERY difficult to fill up, especially when I'm towing. Very few, if any, truck stop stations have gasoline at the truck pumps. So I end up having to fight for an end spot in the normal car area, and block traffic and multiple pumps and whatnot. I REALLY don't like doing that. AND those rotten car gas pumps are slow, and shut off at $50-$100. By the 3rd run of the credit card, my card is being flagged by fraud protection.
Anyway, are you all using mobile apps or websites to locate stations that might be RV friendly and have gas in the truck lanes?
Thanks,
Brian
I used to maneuver into some pretty tight stations with our gasser, especially the Walmart's and even with our toad connected.
However if you're not comfortable with doing so, there's truck stops that have gas lanes, as well and have used them, also.
Either a Pilot or Flying J comes to mind in Seffner, FL and just for an example.
