Gas is getting expensive in Ludlow...These tanks suck. What tank are you guys running and where did you get it.

I think there is a company in Havabrew called Tank It. I think that's the name. :confused: I ran into a guy at the gas station that had one. Looked pretty cool.

Thanks guys...I was looking for stock replacement. Not in bed.
Dicudemore thanks for the link...I saw the stock replacement 45 gallon...Was kinda hoping it was a little cheaper then that. I knew it would be expensive, just hoping not that expensive.

I would also like to add a larger fuel tank.. I have the 8.1L and the 26 gallon tank just doesn't cut it. Also, my fuel gauge is worthless at 1/4 tank or lower. Don't ask me how I know this.. :mad:

I bet I know how :p
I also have a fuel sending unit in stock I would wager :wink:
WHILE you have the tank out for your upgrade would be a great time to replace it...HINT
