Extended range fuel tanks - who has one?
I'm looking into replacement fuel tanks. I'd like to hear from folks who have replaced the existing tank with a larger replacement. Since I haul a TC, can't use a bed tank like I did when I had a 5'...

Can't offer any info based on experience yet, but in a few weeks I plan to have the Titan Spare Tire Auxiliary Fuel System installed. My Chevy only has a 26 gallon tank and this will add another 30. I like this better than the 39 gallon replacement tank Titan makes for my truck since it adds almost 20 more gallons, doesn't mess with the trucks computer regarding the stock tank, and doesn't decrease the fuel tank's ground clearance. Just press a button and 5 gallons gets pumped from the aux tank to the main tank.
The low fuel light comes on in my truck after around 20 gallons and since Chevy has no lift pump I have no desire to find out just how low I can go before I break suction on the fuel system. Like Boatycall, I generally start my search for fuel at around 1/4 tank, especially out west. With the camper that gives me a range of maybe 200 miles before I start looking for fuel. I'm soooo looking forward to leaving the interstate and not having range anxiety.
