I doubt anybody physically checks the actual holding capacity of the tanks when they are doing a PDI. When checking was your unit dead level? If it means that much to you get a flexible camera probe and take a look.
I always check the tanks for capacity, we once learned the hard way on a rig we ordered that came with different capacities than listed. All it takes is a garden hose and a $15 flow meter, 20 to 30 minutes. If the dealer wants to B&M about it for the the time it takes or anything else then he can pound salt and I'll purchase elsewhere.
It's not a big deal if you always have hookups. If you go rustic or boondock a few gallons less in capacity can be a big deal. It might be the difference on a given stay between toting Blueboys and/or jugs of water, or not.
