Getting Diesel at service station or truck stop?

We usually solve the problem by filling up before hooking up.

If you are trying to push hard and do the trip in 2-3 days, that won't work.

I generally don't care for truck stops as the ground always seems to be coated in diesel. We usually use standard stations as the diesel pumps are usually on the outside and you just pull around the building.

As others have said, try to plan out your stops. Gas buddy and then google earth will usually give you a good look ahead and allow you to plan your stops.
