Can we travel with fresh tank full? We lose half on the way.

Every time I fill up my fresh water tank I lose half of the water on the way. So when I get to the campground I top it off. My friend thought it was odd I had this problem until he ran out of water...

I just added a 3 foot length of clear vinyl tubing to my 1/2" PEX overflow tube. I cut the PEX and inserted 5/8" vinyl tubing with 3 loops over the PEX and attached it with hose clamps. I then attached the vinyl tubing to the ceiling of the storage compartment with zip ties. The added advantage is that I can easily see when the tank is full without water flowing out of the tank.
