Since there is only one permitted thread on fuel... and the search feature was useless,I'll ask here;
Next spring we are planning a 6000 mile trip; Houston, Dallas, OKC, KC, Denver, Cheyenne, Yellowstone, SLC, Grand Canyon, Santa Fe, Carlsbad, Houston.
Our rig gets 350-400 miles per tank. Would an auxiliary tank in the TV bed a prudent measure? Or is there enough places to buy diesel at fair prices we don't have to worry?
Post your question on "General RVing Issues"
Personally I would just carry a 5 full of diesel, you should be fine.
you should know the rule of the West, when you can fill up do so.
I did your trip less Yellowstone but with many other stops all over the West with a 25 gallon tanks on a rig that got maybe 10.5 mpg.
We normally need to whiz every 200 mile +/- so we fill up the truck and empty the bladder. New truck and larger trailer, the truck gets bett mpg and the truck now has 36 gallon tank, still have to whiz.
