Benefit of extra fuel tank.
I just went 1237 miles between fuel stops. I towed for about 600 hundred of those miles. I've got an extra 90 gallons in the truck bed. With rising fuel prices it's nice to avoid the gas station.

Funny story. I purchased my Duramax and it has 60 gallon tank in the bed (maybe really 40 + 24 factory). Anyway, my old hauler was a '99 Chevy 2500. When towing with '99 we'd go 125 miles and have to fill it. The diesel goes much further, even at 10mpg towing, I can perhaps make conservatively 650 - 750 miles.
I had filled the truck to the max months before the virus. But my campout was rained out. Then virus came and I must've gone 18 months on that tank.
The Duramax isn't my daily driver, or even my 3rd vehicle to drive. But when raining, I'd take it out.
