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'...

Extra tank aside, I would encourage everybody to start using their tank capacity.
Fueling with gauge showing 1/4 is waste of available resources (unless you see a sign like above).
I hate spending time at gas stations and test most of my vehicles how far they can go on reserve.
Almost any vehicle will make at least 50 miles with reserve light on on highway.
Maybe 30 in the city.
Still far cry to my 1980 VW diesel that would drive 150 miles with gauge showing 0 ;)
Carrying small can with extra fuel makes good "mental reserve" that works well even when you don't use it.
