Auxiliary fuel tank
Has anyone installed an auxiliary fuel tank in the bed of their truck? I have a 2019 F250 diesel crew cab with the short bed. Just wondering if you had problems and solutions. Thanks.

We have had an in bed auxiliary tank in our 8' bed trucks for over 35 years. Never have I connected the tank to the truck always used with a transfer pump. , as we also switched fuel according to season.
When RVing, on a long or snowbirding trip, Diesel gives long range(1100 mi. +) and the ability to fuel when and where we chose.
In our business season when we could not travel much I switched to gasoline to fuel mowers, gas SxS, gennys and such.
For us it is financially worthwhile as I have welded every tank and can commonly save $. 20-50/ gal fuelling .
A meter and water block filter on the pump solved use and condensation issues.
