We stopped for fuel twice on our trip to bring our new-to-us coach home. But we... actually, I was not totally versed on the idiosyncrasies of the fuel system. Like, I didn't know you couldn't trust the gauges, you must burp it while feeding the tanks, and the back and forth sharing of fuel between the tanks.

I had my first real experience with a full fuel stop Friday afternoon at a Costco. It took a full 15 minutes to pump 28 gallons of gas into my tanks. Shocked I used the first pump so I didn't block a second pump and motioned cars behind me around when the forward pump opened up. (6-7 times) One good part was the number of guys that came over and commented on our baby and remembering a time when...

I would be interested in any solutions people have come up with to help with filling these things easier.

A truly happy person is one who can enjoy the scenery on a detour.
