I am running one made by RDS that I got thru Nationwide Wholesalers. It is in a 2012 F250. Had a problem with the shape of the bed and standard tanks setting down on the floor (by measurement). Talked to the lady at the time (Stephanie) and she coordinated a custom sized one through RDS for less than I could have bought it from RDS.:h
anyhow, i marked up one of the ones on their web site and emailed it to her, got it OK'ed by RDS nd I signed the RDS drawing. Stephanie even researched the most economical drop ship for me. Some kinda quirk in that i could not have the drain installed like a diesel but no biggie.
I set it up with a 12 volt pump from NAPA with a 12 volt normally closed valve between the pump and the tank to prevent siphoning and plumbed it into the filler neck.
So now when I flip the switch while driving it turns on the pump and opens the fuel valve, and walla you know the rest.
for lack of better words, i don"t think gravity fed on gas is socially accented.
