I fillup in one charge, no problem.. (@shell or hess stations)
Before you pump go inside.
At hess, they hold your card while you fill up.
at shell, they preauth $200. I take my card and filup.
when i am finished they automatically adjust to actual usage, without me going inside again.
If you need a receipt you would need to go inside again.
i use discover card at hess. Shell card at shell.
Mobil does NOT do this for me..

One day this past summer, I took the Excursion out to fill it up, drove back home, and then took the F-450 back to fill it up too. The Excursion took two swipes as it seems to do a lot (without any problems), and I did one more swipe for the truck. Filled it up and too hit the limit. I put the card in the fourth time and it wouldn't accept it. Went inside and they couldn't do it either.
Credit card company says it won't allow more than three charges at the same place in such close time to each other. They did claim to make a note in our account though to say that we have large vehicles and may have to swipe multiple times at a gas station in a day. Haven't had a problem since, but I also haven't taken both on the same day again like that.
Most around here are $100, but a few PIA ones are $75. I only go to the $75 ones if they are the only one around or have a really good price, but generally I'll go to the $100.
I run the Cruze on Shell now, but I refused to take the Excursion there because the limit is $75.

You know you drive an Excursion when a wad of cash like this fills your gas tank...once. 
I know, I know, this isn't the 'you know you drive an Excursion when...' thread but I couldn't resist!
