The coefficient of expansion for diesel is 0.00046 per degree F. 44 gallons at 7 pounds per gallon at 50 degrees F would weigh 308.0 pounds. However, at 80 degrees, the fuel volume expands to 44.61 gallons. If you siphon off the extra volume to get back to 44 gallons, that 44 gallons would weigh 303.8 pounds.
I believe that's why airlines buy by weight, not volume.
Spoken to the station attendant: "300 pounds of premium diesel please." Sounds kinda cool, doesn't it?

So I would have needed 38,5 gallons @ 7.0 = 269.5 pounds
The X is over 8100 easy.
It drive and rides like that, pushes a bit
going in the corner, if you late brake....

That's why you have to brake early and POWER thru the corner 
WORK them sway bars
but that is a gas saving suggestion... you know !
carrying MORE speed thru the corners means you don't have to accelerate as far to get back up to speed
yeah... that's what I'll tell my wife as she grabs the "OH NO" handle and hooks the arm rest ---- teehee !!
