Good way to tell if your car is drinking up more fuel, or if you have low air pressure in your tires. It makes a noticeable difference.
This is what I do. I pull back on the vapor recovery nozzle, which allows me to fill each time to the lip of the fill spout. Not flawless, but IMO pretty damn accurate.
