auxiliary fuel tank

We have taken two trips with out Fifth wheel. My tow truck is a 2012 F350 with a 6.7 diesel.. Being my factory fuel tank is very small im forced to stop often to refuel which is a pain to me. So I want to buya a auxiliary tank that fits behind the cab and ahead of the fifth wheel hitch. Thinking of at least a 60 gal tank with gravety feed. I have read that some may leak fuel out the vent as fuel sloshes. Any recomendations would be appreciated. Thanks!

On another post, forum member Gdetrailer posted this. I was so impressed, I'm am seriously considering getting one. (not for travel), but for my garage to fuel my lawn mowers and such: Click here. Look at the bottom of his post, the picture! Pretty nifty idea!

I installed a 40 gallon and LOVE It! Put a solenoid in the fuel line to start flow when you tank is down.

Check with Transfer Flow in Chico Ca. 1-530-893-5209 transfer flow.com. I don't think gravity feed fuel tanks are legal. I had a 60 gal fuel tank installed in the same location my original tank was located.
