DEF tank location on 2012 Itasca Meridian 40U
The DEF tank is located on the rear passenger side, whereas the DEF fill hose at all truck stops is on the driver side - duh! Furthermore, the tank is sufficiently recessed and high, that filling it from the 2.5 gal. containers available at truck stops is very difficult (about half way through the fill, the container tilt hits the top of the door opening). Why didn't Winnebago engineers provide a fill access location on each side, as they have for the fuel tank? I am considering attaching a funnel to a 3' piece of 1/2" garden hose with a nozzle that fits the small opening on the DEF tank. With this contraption, it would at least be easier to make the pour. Has anyone come up with a more creative way to address this issue?
