I have a 2013 Ford F350 that I'm towing my Reflection 337 with. One very frustrating detail is the small fuel tank that Ford elected to put in the short bed model. It's only 26 gallons. I get 11.7 mpg on average towing our rig. That give me a maximum range of just over 300 miles By the time I've towed about 225 miles, I need to start searching for a fuel station that can accommodate 55 feet of tow vehicle and fifth wheel. In some communities, that is very difficult to do. I'd much rather get a full day of towing in, get to camp, disconnect, and then fuel up. So I've been researching replacement fuel tanks to increase my range. I found a Transfer Flow tank that is a direct fit in my truck and holds 50 gallons! That means I can tow around 585 miles before running out. Since I usually tow around 300 miles in a day, I won't need to fill up while hitched up any more!
So I bought the new tank from Transfer Flow via their website. It arrived 7 days later by commercial truck. It was well packaged and included everything I needed to install it. The price was $909.97 plus shipping of $150. I found a promotional code for $50 off, so the total bill was $1009.50.
I called around, and most of the authorized installers charge $350-$400 to install. Being a cheapskate, I elected to do it myself. It took me about an hour to drop the old tank this afternoon, and I'll finish the install tomorrow. If you have decent mechanical skills, It's not too hard to do. Since Transfer Flow tanks are made in the U.S.A, the instructions are actually written by someone with English as their first language! I can understand them, and they leave nothing unanswered. In fact, they even posted a video on YouTube of the exact installation I'm doing.
Here's a picture of my old tank on the right, and my new tank on the left:

For any of you contemplating replacing your tank, here's a link to the YouTube video to give you an idea of the task:

I'll post more pictures tomorrow when the job is done. The final step will be to fill out the new Tire and Loading Information placard that Transfer Flow provided so I can derate my payload capacity. Due to the additional weight of the fuel tank and fuel, I'll lose 298# of payload.
