So what do you more experienced guys do about filling a DEF tank sits on the curb side of the vehicle?
I'm driving a T800 and I've always driven T800's in the past out of either like a company lot or something like that where you're filling at a company def pump and it's no problem but pulling into a fuel Island the wrong direction doesn't seem like a good practice to me.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

There are some truck stops where it is not a big deal to go through backwards. You just need a bigger, less busy truck stop to do it or fuel at a less busy time. I follow Supetruckerdan on YouTube and he has this issue with his truck as well.

A lot of fuel island's I use have signage for the right side def pump.

Our DEF pump has access on both sides. My truck has the tank on the drivers’ side, but on the twin screws it’s on the passenger side.

If need be, you can drop the trailer and go in backwards. Just in case some prick noses up to you.
