new truck, contaminated fuel

[viper86]

I tanked fuel and I go thru about 21,000 gallons of diesel a year.  I have never understood the idea about after a tanker dropping fuel that the stuff in the bottom is all stirred up and causes a problem.  The pickup tube is down to within a few inches of the bottom anyway. if there is water and contaminates down there they are going to get sucked up into the pickup tube.  
 
Now I have seen where after a major rainstorm that fuel tanks get more water in the tanks.

We have had a very wet spring/early summer but judging by what came out of my tank, I don’t think that was the problem.
