Thank you for the replies. The OEM tank is 26gallons, so not a lot of range there. I didn't want an 8' bed because most of the time, there is no trailer/hitch and the 6'4 is perfect for everyday use... so the challenge was seeing if there was an option/solution that I hadn't seen. Guess it is either install a new tank (52g) or just deal with the auxillary tank in the bed.
Thank you for taking the time to help out a new forum member.
Welcome . If it were me ,and I too have the short bed Ram, I would go with a under the bed Titan, and be done ,no messing with auxiliary tanks, needing to be filled ,and then transferred to the OE tank , fill just the one . 52 gallons or whatever is nearly 400-500 mile range towing , if you can't find fuel in that distance, you are really off the beaten path :)
My truck holds right at 30 gallons, I plan my trips, and there has been plenty , and thousands of miles ,and never has been a problem. I personally do not want to carry another 250-300 lbs of fuel in the bed, another 150 lbs or so, that I could deal with , 50 gallons total .
