Auxiliary fuel tank under bed cover

So here's the thing...

I love all the tonneau cover suggestions, but I am trying to find one that would fit over an auxiliary fuel tank.

Any recommendations on the fuel tank and tonneau cover combo for the 5er configuration?

Thanks guys!

The thing is - YOU need to do YOUR homework!..;)

There's PLENTY of options that will fit in your bed under almost any tonneau or bed cover!

It all depends on how much fuel you want to carry -vs- bed space sacrificed.

Do you want a true aux tank (plumbed) to your main tank -or- a reserve
which can be pumped into your main tank - or gravity fed?

Is the added weight an issue (for you)?

How much do you want to spend?..:@

Suggest you get a Northern Tool catalog and look at the (many) tank options and dimensions.

And of course - there are auxiliary tank companies doing professional installations to extend your range.

"Iron butt" is not really my "thing" - a stop for fuel after 350+ miles on my factory 35 gal tank is just fine and fits in with stretching my legs & a lavy call.

Consequently - for me - one of the 18 gal RDS tanks is "just there" as a reserve.......which I rarely "tap into", if ever.

BTW - RDS did a custom 50? gal tank featured in one of the mags, which was the *full* width of the truck bed and only about 8" wide.

Yeah - the filler on that one was taller than the top of the bed -
but you could have a "revised" model - - for a price...:W
