Transfer tank

Finally finished the install. No more planning stops around fuel stations. 105 gallons additional. Makes for more leisurely travel. Should have done of sooner.

I know after having ours for a year now, I could not imagine being without it. 900-1000 mile range is nice!! Must be one heckuva tank, 105 gallons plus what is in the truck? Ours is only 60 or so.

Have 150 gallons on the passenger side that automatically transfers to the 150 gallon tank on the driver's side. 300 total gallons at around 9 mpg and we can go 2,700 miles on one fill up. Love it and would recommend transfer tanks. Sure gives you many fuel options when on the road.

I have the 37 gallon Transfer Flow tank in the bed. That gives me 63 gallons which is more than enough for 1 day's travel. I can better plan my fuel stops now. Judy didn't like it when I used squeeze the monster into small stations to try to get fuel.

We plan to put in the 65 gallon replacement Titan Tank before going to Alaska next year, but they are expensive.

Be sure to drain the bottom of the transfer tank once in a while! Water is heavier than fuel and will accumulate on the bottom of the tank. Don't ask how I know this!

I installed a 30 gal in the bed of the truck, only takes up about 8-9" and nearly doubles my range. Like the convenence and I can easly transfer it to my next truck.
