Hey Tom;

I have the same problem. I always fill until I see gas dripping on
the drives side just to the inside and in front of the rear wheel. It
doesn't leak while I'm filling it, just as I start to top it off.
Didn't use to do it when I got the coach, but started in the last
couple of years. I was told there is something in that location that
has to do with the fuel system, but haven't gotten up there to check.
I'm going to check the driver's side rear bearings today, so might
shimmy up under there and check it out. Will let you know what I find.
