Well, you’re not going to typically get much more out of most half tons. Idk for sure, but the 30+ gallon tanks are only in long beds I think. Icbw though and it doesn’t seem financially prudent to take a bath on your new truck.
Also the baby diesel Ram is good on mileage, but if you don’t trust an Eco boost you really won’t trust an Eco diesel. Guys in the know are not fans of them.
I would have issue spending that much on an oversized tank, but in your situation it sorta seems like the least expensive option.
I agree w you though, especially on big pickups, no reason to have these puny tanks. Ford and Ram finally got it right. Ford first with their 48 gal tank.
Extra Payload isn’t going to affect your truck though. 100 lbs? You won’t notice a difference.
If you do upgrade, the beauty of diesels is not just better mileage , but there are several options for in bed slip tanks that are gravity feed. Sooo nice to be packin 30-60 extra gal of fuel imo.
