Extended range fuel tanks - who has one?

I'm looking into replacement fuel tanks. I'd like to hear from folks who have replaced the existing tank with a larger replacement. Since I haul a TC, can't use a bed tank like I did when I had a 5'er. Also don't want a spare tire replacement tank...I like having a spare.

Stock tank is 37 gallons. Fully loaded, depending on where I go, I get 10-11mpg. Usually, it's my arse saying it's time to stop and take a fuel break before my gauge says to. But sometimes, it would be nice to have a little extra range.

I've found three so far for my truck, these are the best prices I could find--.
-Titan 67 gallon, ABS plastic, $1409 free shpg
-Aerotanks Aluminized Steel, 60 gallon, $980 + $170shpg
-TransferFlow Aluminized Steel, 57 gallon $1185 free shpg

The Titan appears to be the most popular, but that doesn't mean it's the best.

Any thoughts?

Like you did with your rig, go big.

I like having the option to fill where I want to instead of where I need to. Different states have different tax rates for fuel. Some states are cheaper than others. Some states I prefer to NOT buy fuel in.

I can't speak to the Titan as I have an in-bed auxiliary tank.
Good Luck.

Your money but a 370 mile range isn't limiting in my view.
