Would like to hear what members are using for diesel auxiliary truck bed tanks. General information like: Brand, material (steel or aluminum), capacity, gravity or pump transfer & any other related information you would like to provide. Smile

I installed a bunch of transfer flow tanks combo tool box in my customers foreman and crew trucks over the years, nice products. The only draw back is the pump is slower than say the fill rite by about half. There is a real nice aluminum tank out with a 15 gpm pump, I forget the name of it though. Its just the tank, no tool box. combo units were just under 2 grand a couple of years ago, probably higher now.

If you're going for extra capacity for your truck, not for carrying fuel for other things, take a look at Titan Fuel tanks. Bolt into the stock location and keeps your bed open. Just a thought

Thanks Guys!

We are looking for extra capacity for the new truck we have to find first. It will be used for nothing else & we would like 100 gal. minimum capacity total. Not worried about losing part of the bed, we have other trucks for using the beds.

On the new truck, we found a 2023 Chevy High Country 3500 dually today with a sticker price of 87K. They were not open today, going to be there at opening tomorrow to see how much they want over sticker. We are paying cash & if they want too much over sticker we'll wait. I'll go some over sticker, but how much I don't know! Eek

had a Transfer Flow aluminum 98 gal in the bed of my dually. Fully integrated with the OEM system and had very good service with it.

How's the new truck tow? Gas or Diesel?

We took delivery on the truck yesterday it only has 145 miles on it after we drove it yesterday. They want 500 pampered miles on the truck before towing, the plan is to get the remainder miles on it. Then tow with it next weekend & it's diesel.

The new truck is a diesel & it's a luxurious beast for towing!

We decided on a Transfer Flow auxiliary tank, just haven't decided on the gal, capacity yet. It's either going to be a 75 or 100 gal. leaning towards a 100.

Pretty sure I'll drive to Chino CA to have it installed at Transfer Flow.

Getting ready to make the trip to Transfer Flow in Chico, CA to have the 100 gal. aux tank installed. Not sure the route I'm going to take, there's basically 2 routes from our place. Both of them have had highway closures recently due to the heavy snows in the Seirra Neveda Mountain Range. I would prefer to take the one East of the range, but that's the most treacherous route crossing over using the Donner pass. I'll probably take the Western route of the range for the 1st part of the trip.

I've put together some emergency supplies in the truck. Plus, I need to get some Diesel anti-gel additive for 140 gal. for the return trip. This will be my 1st major trip with the new truck, roughly 1,200 miles total.

Two long days of travelling & the auxiliary tank is installed. I was able to test the system on the drive home, even though the manufacturer does that with the install.

I got in & out of CA as quick as I could, more snow/rain on the way. Eek
