In bed fuel transfer tank question
Looking to ad a 35-75 gallon in bed fuel transfer tank.(not an auxiliary/plumbed in) What type should I get, aluminum, steel or poly? Aluminum scares be because it is so thin, and steel will rust. ...

Answer from someone who has run countless slip tanks both steel and aluminum.
Your fears about either material is 100% unfounded.
But you can get a plastic tank if you can’t get over the fear. However they are generally like the Fischer Price version of a time tested tool. In certain conditions I’m sure they’re fine and may offer a couple small discreet advantages like easily moveable or transferable between vehicles or locations. even though folks who probably profess to be safety conscious somehow have no issue with a large quantity of unsecured fuel container in the back of their truck.
And I’ll answer a question with a question. If a dedicated diesel tank for the truck, why the aversion to plumbing it in for hands free operation?
