Tell this RV'er how to be nice to all the truckers he's sharing the road with

Sir,
Thank you for taking the initiative to come on here and toss the ball with us. Most RV'ers seem to drive in a state of chosen obliviousness; you won't be that guy. I envy you and I wish you safe travels seeng this beautiful country.
Don't know if someone has already mentioned it but when you stop in a pullout, like a scenic spot on the side of the road, try to park on the ends and edges and not smack dab in the middle like a Herbert. That's my RV pet peeve.
Cheers!

 

Is there a problem here!!!???

 

That's what I call a Heavy Haul expert! I do think her "Pilot Car" is a little big?

BTW: I do think it was really wise of you to come here to find out about your trailer. Instead of going to an RV shop, with them having no idea but to sell you something.

 

Wow, news to me. And you can dispense fuel without blow back?

 

You know you can control the flow through the nozzle?

All my diesels pickups can use the larger nozzle without any issues.

 

You mean ULSD doesn't mead UnLeaded Super Diesel? Who'd have known...

 

No s#$%? Did you really just post that? To think that in all my nearly 5 1/2 decades on earth I never noticed that a fuel nozzle had variable control, sonofagun! And... with 23 of those years as a master mechanic and... 20 of those years owning and driving a diesel pick up truck, I have seen/driven/touched/repaired more diesel pick up trucks than most people. And... in that time, the only vehicles I ever recall allowing a fuel nozzle not designed, or intended for use on said vehicles, were those altered by the owners at some point.

If your vehicle accepts a high flow nozzle by factory design, then it is a recent development compared to my experience. That also means that the filler neck and ventilation system in the fuel storage system is designed to accommodate the rate of flow imposed by the high flow pumps. Just opening a filler to allow a high flow nozzle would be counter productive and messy.

Apologies for my ignorance, sheesh.

 

Remind me to give you a call o great ayotollah of trucks so I may prostrate my rig on the altar of your omnipotent greatness O mighty one to fix the smallest of problems that creates really big issues being able to run.

TEASING.....

Seriously I am happy for you and have been wondering about the high flow versus basic car and truck tanks but feel ignorant myself and too afraid to ask stupid questions. From my experience using a big truck fueling station is a big cannon. All on 50 gallons in 3 seconds or all off. Nothing in between.

 

Yeah, I confess, condescension early in the morning can bring out the snark in me.

 

Ok.... Then we'll try again tonight.
