Propane fill up requires jacking….

We decided to take the van out on a shake-down cruse this weekend (it’s fall break at GaTech, so it was a 4 day weekend) and as the first step we decided to fill the propane tank. The first place we took it to (PECO Camping) had a big fancy propane nozzle, and because our propane fill up port is pointing down towards the ground, they couldn’t get it attached. So, we started the camping trip without a propane fill up, but kept an eye out for other LP tanks. On the way out of Atlanta, we found a U-Haul store with a LP fill up tank out front. They had a shorter nozzle, but it still wouldn’t quite fit. We had to get out the bumper jack and lift the back of the van up just to get the connector attached. So it looks like unless we bring some ramps to our LP fill-ups we are going to have to use the bumper jack just to get propane.
