didnt exactly know which forum to post this question so ha no trolling. ok. so i use my truck to get to work. i get about 22mpg. but i keep having to fill up every 2 days. i drive 54 miles to work. is there a bigger gas tank i can put on my truck? or do i have to get a tank to put in the bed of the truck and rig it to the gas tank.

 

54 miles round trip or one way? If its 54 miles round trip, I used to drive more than that daily in a 4.0L and only had to fill up weekly.

 

108miles round trip. Having to fill up every 2 days. Getting about 22mpg

 

You could mount an auxiliary tank in the bed. Or just find something that gets better mileage

 

2 days is 216 miles then, I used to drive 62 miles, 4x a week, thats....248 miles, so I guess that seems normal, but I was getting 21mpg and still had 1/4 left or a bit more at the end of the week after going more miles. No mods on your truck? What engines in it? Could be you have a smaller tank than I did.

I worked on a Ranger that actually had 2 fuel tanks factory installed, it was an 88 or 89 i think..I'm not sure what year they stopped that, what year is your truck? You could always rig a second gas tank into the bed, make sure its super secure, and then make some sort of a little valve system so that when your primary tank gets low, you can just open up a valve and the gas from the external tank fills up the primary one again.

 

Aftermarket tank is all you can if the bed tank isn't something you want.
Maybe something mounted in the spare tire area.
Extended cab has a larger tank than a single cab but not sure what you have or how work to swap.

Luck

 

Two tanks would be awesome to have. I would say see what you can do with the spare tire area.

 

I think there was a thread about a rear tank and the install of the new filler.
Not sure which,n eed to search it out.
