Thinking of adding and external tank for trip
I've got a 99 F250 with the 7.3 and we're lucky to get a range of 350 miles on flat ground and we like to do a lot of boondocking so I'm thinking of adding an external tank so I don't feel like I have...

You're able to 350 miles on a tank? Is that towing or empty?? I've got an '02 7.3 that we're lucky to go 220 miles/tank when towing 30 ft 7500 travel trailer and that's with a tuner which I think helps me get another 1-2 mpg. Running empty, I have no trouble going 325-350 miles per tank.
If you get that distance towing, I'd like to know more about your set-up. I'm always looking to see what I can do to improve my mileage. By the way, I never let the needle drop below 1/4 tank cause I don't trust the gauge below that mark. If it's accurate I suppose I could squeeze out another 50-75 miles or so.
