Fuel stops of Class "A" 37' with a 15' toad Fla I75 NB

[RJL]

Heading north Friday. I topped off the tank yesterday. I get about 350 miles until I hit the 1/4 left mark on the fuel gauge. I have yet to find a good RV friendly gas stop on my way north on I75 in Fla. I take 75 N from Cape Coral, to I 10 to I95 in Ga. Typically I stop off Exit 1 in Ga and fuel up. Then up to South of the Border for fuel, then to Va X33 for fuel, then to Maryland, then home. I just kind of hit or miss in Fla. I'm at 37' and with our JKUR at 15' we're at about 53". I had a MAJOR mishap at a too small Fuel stop in SC in May and ripped the rear cap to shreads on the MH. Was in the body shop from May to September. Ugh.

Thanks

Bob

This worked out perfect for us. X-285 off of I 75 in Fla, then X-1 off 95 in Ga., then X-33 off of 95 in Va, were currently camping in Va and tomorrow will be our last stop at X-100 off of 95 in Md. Never hit a quarter tank and all RV friendly gas stops.

Love's also has an app. I have the Pilot one too. Now looking into the Big Truck Stops one, thanks!

In Ocala at I75 and SR 40 there are two larger stations. Loves / Pilot / Flying J ? Not sure but two of those !

Close but no cigar.

There are "truck stop" size stations both north and south of Ocala but nothing for really big rigs at SR 40.

South of Ocala at MM 341, the Pilot is cramped and NOT a good place to stop with a MH. the Race Trac on the east side should be OK.

North of Ocala at MM 358 are 3 large stations. Two Pilots on the east side of 75 are always busy and somewhat hard to navigate. The Loves on the west side is a better bet.

MM 341 ... Been there, done that and bought the t-shirt. 😞

You are correct ! I travel SR 40 but forgot about the bypass we take to I75 . It is east highway 326 & I 75 where the stations are located !

Sorry for the confusion!

I bought a book late last winter/early spring that lists all trucks stops in the US, Canada and I think Mexico. Tells you how long "X" interstate is, exits w/ stops etc. Came in quite handy this past summer when we went to FL. Want to say, someone on here posted the name of it when I asked. AWESOME lil thing.

Thank you. Perfect. I like to top off rather then NEED fuel.
