    Agreed. I really like all his other designs, but this one just plain and doesn't flow well.

    Kind of defeats the purpose of a swingout if you don't offer that.

    A full kit will cost around $60-65. I just need to see what lengths I'm going to use for the kit. I'll keep it posted

    Are they on a pressure switch to come on when the hatch is lifted?

    They have said in the past that they do not approve of them as you have a bomb just sitting on the back of you vehicle waiting to get hit. I agree with them partially though. Always seemed sketchy to me to have gas just sitting there.

    I had rotopax on my tacoma. Had a storage one with recovery gear and a full first aid kit along with a water can. Nothing explosive.

    Yes, they will come with the pin switch and everything needed.

    It is true but shouldn't stop them from making it. They just need to make it clear that that risk is present, but Danny is right. It would only get hit under extreme conditions. My Firebird is more likely to explode than the gas tanks

    ^ This

    When I had a high clearance bumper on my lifted Jeep I was more worried about a small car rear ending me and going under the bumper and into the gas tank. 4Runners don't really have this problem.
