Does 12 gallons more fuel (and a local Ford dealer) make it worth buying a Ford for a long time GM fan?
We like the lonely stretches of NV a lot.
well, our 2004 duramax only had a 26gallon tank.... Even with the diesel when towing that meant some planning for gas stops and for a few trips carrying an extra 5 gallons.
With the 2015 and 35 gallon tank, not near the issue, if the 2015 had a 26 gallon tank I'd have installed an aftermarket. With the 35 it's now in the "barely adequate" rather than "almost adequate" category. 50 gallons, that would be a definitely adequate fuel tank size.
we do a 760 mile trip unloaded quite often and I need one fuel stop. with a 50 gallon, nice. and when towing 35 gallon is often not quite a days trip, 50 gallons... one days trip stop and the end of the day for fuel.
I'd definitely pay extra for a 50 gallon tank if it was an option.
