However, after that trip I mentioned, I immediately added a larger tank under the truck. I think it was 52 gallons. MUCH nicer.
And my newer 2012 has 36 which is just barely enough. Now that I am REALLY old instead of kindof old, I try to only drive 250 -300 miles but some days it is 350 which depending on the terrain, I don't have enough fuel.
What do you think might be wrong with my tank? The gauge seems to be fine. Do you think there is something inside the tank taking up 7 gallons of volume? Curious about your thoughts a anxious to fix this.
