Route from Grand Island to Alliance NE-Diesel/Campsites

We are traveling NW on Hwy 2 on the 4th of July, afternoon. Are we going to have problems finding Diesel fuel and camping sites? We have a Winnebago View which has a small fuel tank, but is easy to boondock. Your experience would be appreciated.

    You shouldn't have any trouble as almost all of the small towns have diesel as this is ranch country. I lived in NE almost all of my life and we fished that part of the state a lot and never had trouble finding fuel.

    This website lists truck stops in Nebraska. Looks like there is one in Broken Bow and another in Hyannis.

    I also saw an app called Truckerpath that will show diesel fuel in relation to one's GPS coordinates, which might be helpful when already on the road.

    Freecampsites.net shows some possible camp spots around Hyannis and Brownlee. Also the NE Natl Forest near Brownlee appears to have 2 CGs.
