Newbies finding diesel fuel

We are new 5w owners, have been out a few times within our state and near by. We've learned everything the hard way ! We have conquered backing into the hitch, leveling, hooking up the utilities, etc., but the one thing intimidating us from venturing out further is finding and maneuvering into gas stations. Any helpful hints would be appreciated!

    Good advice above from 2oldman
    Also, I often go out and fuel up without the trailer, after we have pulled into a campground and unhooked for the night.

    Also, Flying J has rv lanes, usually in the front. Get a frequent feuler card from them (free) and you don't even have to go in the store.

    Truck stops are your friend. And, stay away from big cities and their suburbs, which are designed for small vehicles. And the trees aren't trimmed.
