User friendly petrol stations - is there a map??

I'm new to touring and luckily have the excellent Subaru Forester 2.5XT as a family car, and now tow car.

The only problem being 17-18 mpg when fully loaded with the Van on the back which means a 160-180 mile range.

Has a 'map' available for user friendly filling stations?? Our outfit is loooooong, and I don't like the idea of having to rely on 'the next petrol station we come across' as access could easily be impossible.

Thanks in advance

I do not think you will have a problem, well not in the uk anyway. Agree with previous post stick to outside pumps which are usally easiest and feel sorry for 'followers!

Great thread and one that has got me thinking.  I can certainly think of a few Petrol Stations here in Wiltshire that I would want to avoid like the plague if towing a caravan.  The 2 main one's being Sainsbury's stations that have been crammed into a small space.
