SB gas tank

I'm having a hard time getting my gas tank to fill all the way on my 2005 shortbed.
Today I really worked on the pump, and was able to get an additional 4 gallons into the tank after the pump wanted to shut down. Calculations indicated 30.5 gallons in the tank (which seems to be the latest posted capacity). The computer indicated 405 miles range, and I ran up 85 miles on the odometer before the gas gauge dropped below F.
Those numbers are great, but its a real struggle to get it all in. Any others have experience with the gasser tanks?

Well, all the symtoms seem normal, except its a gasser--haven't heard much about fillup problems with gas, just the diesel.

Do you go to the same place every time? I find some gas stations have 'easier' pumps than others.
