I guess I now realize the challenges that those with Fifth wheels and big travel trailers have to face.

It's a good thing you were alert and don't have 'scars' from your first 'toad' trip.
If you can, it's less worrisome to fuel at places like Flying J with RV fuel islands or fuel when the toad & trailer aren't being towed. Our rig isn't as long as some, but the congestion and impatient drivers around many gas stations makes maneuvering an aggravation we avoid whenever possible.
