Your exactly right advertised gal is not correct, but quality and ease of installation its a great product. Actually Im having one installed in next few months after recall is taken care of.

We are planning a 1.5 month trip out west and it only makes sense as Im not stopping every 2-2.5 hours to fuel up. I dont want to plan trip around fuel stops. Not worth it.

I have the Titan 52 gallon replacement tank, which is one of the best things I did. Transformed one of the routes I take from a seat clincher at times, to a comfortable one.
The only minor negative I have, is after the nozzle shuts off first time, at a reduced flow, I usually can get another 4 gallons in the tank.2023 Chevy 3500HD CC SB 4x4 Dmax

I’m running 14 ply commercial truck tires. Love them. Maybe that extra gallons will ride well too. As soon as this fuel issues is resolved definitely will be getting.

Hello. I have a 2018 3500 larmie without the dulley set up. ill add some notes below on each of your choices.
3500 Laramie
4x4 8' Crew cab
HO Cummins with Aisin: Great choice. the 68 RFE transmission is not worth it. it is worth getting the upgrade. I recommend getting a thermal by-pass installed. This allows the transmission to start cooling down just a little sooner. [/B]
3.73 rear axle ratio
2 x 220 Amp alternators: Yes and no. Depends on the battery load. I have the single and does just fine. I charge the batteries as i drive and you dont need the extra unless you plan on adding A LOT more draw. This is usually added for Snow plows.
41.6-gallon fuel tank: Yes. I am adding in a titan tank as well. be sure to ask about the re-programer. then it will re-fob your till empty. If you are getting a new model 5th gen. Make sure you get the new CP unit installed due to the recall. you dont want your injection system blowing up. I have a 2018 3500 and installed a up-lifter fas-pas for the fuel and love it. you can kiss paying OEM prices for filters and change them out every second time you would when you did your factory filters. so better filter for cheaper.
Adaptive steering system.
Rear auto-levelling air suspension. Air lift does a great job and i cant be happier. make sure to get a remote as sometimes you can have issues with your phone if running through an app. Drill a hole in your back under floor storage box. insert your intake from there. So now your compressor will always pull clean dry air instead of road grime. Another add on is getting the add a leaf package to stiffen up your back end just a little more.
5th Wheel & Gooseneck Towing Prep Group. This is good and bad. Figure out what you will be towing with before you need to install and start modifying things. sometimes its best to let a mechanic do the work out of the OEM shop. I do recommend getting an additional trailer plug installed in your truck bed to prevent scratching your tail gate when you have to run it down to your bumper.
Trailer tire pressure monitoring system
Tri-fold tonneau cover: Get a tool box. Store stuff outside of the rv so you dont have to unload your pass through to get tools.
Power deployable running boards: These are great but you will find you will have some fun having this below as it takes room away from your pump when you install your air lift compressor. I recommend getting these done at the same time.
Leather-faced front vented front bucket seats (it is the main point - are "Limited" seats any better?) Limited is the blue leather i think. I do love the vented seats and heated seats. also the extra storage with the full centre console.
Dual rear wheels: you get more towing but you can regain a lot back with your up-lifter and extra leaf spring. Sadly you can kiss going through lots of drive throughs and automatic car washes good bye.
