    Remember, adding that kind of weight takes away from your hauling weight. I do just fine with the stock tank. I get between 9mpg and 11mpg.

    I went with an 80 gal, I'll compensate when I don't need it and need the weight savings!

    Well I'm signed on, got an 8000# load going @1100 miles paying 80% of $2100 dollars, should drop by Wednesday, gotta pay fuel, insurance, and a couple other expenses. Insurance is a bit high, looking into my own. Still trying to wrap my head around it all.
