When I was starting out I was fretting about getting my 28' gasser into and out of stations and a wise RVer reminded me that gas is delivered via a semi every week of the year at every station in the country. He had some derogatory comments about the abilities of fuel truck drivers which I don't agree with, but he got the point across.
BUT semi tanker trailers are nowhere's near as tall as a RV, so yes they can get in/out w/ relative ease. As for my comment about using the semi lanes, was assuming OP was talking about or had a diesel engine.
11 years, over 1500 nights on the road, many more off highway gas stations used than truck stops in every single state & I am yet to come across a canopy where I have had an issue with my near 13' height.
Now, as far as fuel availability goes, along an eastern interstate you can hardly go 10 miles without coming across a very easy in & out truck stop. They are everywhere.
