    I have a problem as I am a contractor that does a stupid amount of interstate driving. I commute upwards of 7-800 miles in a week and I am desperately looking for auxiliary fuel tank options. I have looked at the thread here but nothing was really available and the last post was several months old.

    So I am hoping to resurrect this question. I am not really vehicle savvy myself nor do I have the facilities to do a complete build so this would be an install done for me. I really like transferflow tanks but they do not have one available for tacos. Puzzles me. So any ideas or help please?

    BTW I am looking for a simple metal 30-50 gallon in bed fuel tank for a short bed. Not a transfer one with pump or anything. I am also hesitant to look into true custom jobs. I basically live out of hotels and friends couches for the time being. So I can't have anything shipped to me right now. So a mass market product that can be shipped to and installed by a shop would be preferable to me. That being siad I would like to hear any and all suggestions.

    Thanks!

    That actually looks pretty damn amazing. this is a dumb question but are diesel tanks compatible with gasoline? I would think they would be but I don't know for sure. I imagine the reverse would not be true however.

    Thanks!

    Call Titan, but yes they are compatible - I had a titan 50 gallon for my F250 that replaced the stock tank, and it was fantastic - it is one of the things I miss the most about my big truck, being able to roll 800 miles without a fill up!
