Filling the diesel tank

Hi all - 

 

How do you guys fill your diesel tank?

 

With my 2002 F250 SD, I would fill the tank until the nozzle clicked off, and then slowly trickle in another five gallons until the fuel was at the top of the filler hose (I could see the fuel).  That way, I knew my tank was totally full.

 

I was wondering if this approach might screw something up with the modern diesel fuel system (I don't know if there's a bunch of extra hoses or vapor canisters), which is why I am asking.

 

Thanks...

I was wondering the same for the 2020/2021 super duties. On my 2007 f250 6.0, 29 gallons capacity is advertised, but I can get a total of 34 gallons in from empty to full at the cap. My guess with the CC 6.7 short bed at 34 gallons, could 38-39 gallons be the actual top off from empty to top off?
