I wouldn't be without my Rand RV GPS, but like others have pointed out they are not 100% perfect. However, between it and me consulting my Truckers Atlas for the upcoming routes there will never be an issue with low clearance for us.
We are almost 58' long traveling this summer (Challenger pulling mcy trailer). If we can't find a Flying J or Pilot with RV lanes in our pre-planning then we have to use regular gas stations. I personally have never seen a truck stop that has gas along with diesel in the truck lanes. There are long stretches, especially out west, where there are no stations with RV dedicated lanes. We keep an eye on rural exits that may have just one or two gas stations. If at a half of a tank or less we will get off and look these over. Generally if a rural exit doesn't have restaurants and motels the gas stations there aren't busy. We have had very good luck getting in and out with our long gas rig at these types of stations.
