Gas Leak?

When I fill the gas tank and the RV sets in storage for several months the gas tank gage shows a less than full tank. Any one have thoughts or advice?

We have a 2019 Thor 33.4’ class A that seems to leak full while RV is stored, but no gas smell or other in dictators of gas leak.

So how much gas does it take to refill it when this happens? Has the level actually dropped or is it an gauge issue?

Filled on a hot day, checked on a cold day.
You fill on a flat and check the guage on a slope.
Guage settles.
You checked it wrong.
Your missing half a tank is being tapped by a yard employee along with all other tanks on the lot.

Whatever the reason can't be addressed/solved on such slim information provided.

Absolutely cannot be addressed.

School teachers are having gas siphoned from cars in some parts out in NM.

Nope... they're drilling the tanks. Gorilla tape covers their tracks until they're gone. Welcome to the new world order...
