I have a Dodge Ram 3500 4x4 dually long bed. I put a 45 gal aluminum auxiliary tank I bought from Tractor Supply. I don't remember what I paid, but it was well under $500. It is a gravity flow. This gives me nearly 80 gal. total. I fill it up on top of my regular tank and when my fuel gage starts to move I start looking for a station. This takes away all the anxiety of worrying about getting too low on fuel. I had the gravity flow fuel line connected to the filler tube to my reg. fuel tank. The first tank I put in was an 109 gallon iron metal tank. I went through 3 fuel pumps before I realized the tank was rusting and letting little rust chips go through my system and plugging up the fuel pumps. I could have put on a filter, but instead I just got an aluminum aux. tank. I didn't spend much over $600 for the whole system and had someone else install it. I did my own installation on the first tank I put in a 2005 Dodge. The 2014 Dodge has a metal fill tube so I had it installed.
You will definitely be satisfied with having extra fuel.
