That's about 1400 lbs of diesel but of course you have a big truck. The average 60 gal auxiliary tank is about 420 lbs of diesel plus the weight of the tank. Our F-350 already weighs 9K lbs ready to tow.The 60 gallon transfer tank weighs about 80 to 90 lbs.I wonder what the mpg is with a extra 500 lbs or so in the bed.
