Truck is a 3500 4X4 HD Dodge long bed dully 6.7 Cummings, 9 speed manual transmission,
getting up to 12 mpg while in town at 63 mph. 9 mpg at 70 mph. Driving range now about 275 miles

I bought a tank that fits into the bed of the truck. It gravity feeds into the factory tank as that tank burns fuel. When he hand on the fuek\l gauge begins to move I know I have used all the fuel in the factory tank and am now running on the tank located in the bed of the truck. A whole lot cheaper and just as good if not better. I can go close to five hundred miles before refueling. Stop when you want to, not when you have to.
