Auxiliary fuel tank
Hi,
I have a 2012 F350 short box and pull a fifth wheel. The F350 has a very small fuel tank and im constantly stopping to refuel. Im looking into a auxillary tank. Some are aluminum, some painted steel. Some are listed as just transfer tanks and are much cheaper. The transfer tanks are not recomended for hooking up to fuel fill line.
Some have electric pumps and some are gravity fill. Im a bit confused on what is legal for direct hook up to the trucks fill line. I have about 24 inches in front of my hitch. I would like at least a 50 gallon tank. I would like to keep pricing below $700 and keep it as simple as possable. Any suggestions or advice on aluminum vs steel and gravity feed vs electric pump?
thanks for any help.
