Thanks... My 5th wheel is 12 feet high. Are most gas stations canopy's higher than that? Also, forgot to ask if the diesel fuel at truck stops is the same as you get at service stations, I hear that there may be different grades.

YES......just pull out of fueling area when done so the truckers can get to pump.....courtesy.
And watch those nozzles...they are high flow

I don't mess with truck stops....or Flying Js/Pilot etc
I fuel at regular stations......prices are generally lower and islands are near as messy plus lines are not anywhere as long.

Tankers get into those regular stations and I can park my rig in campground sites I can get in/out of regular stations. I've had to back out of a couple but that's just honing the skills as far as I'm concerned.
Just me but I stay away, far away from truck stations.
Is it time for your medication or mine?
