  • My 2013 Ram Megacab came stock with a 31 gallon fuel tank. When pulling my 40 foot gooseneck I could get down to 4MPG at times and getting into smaller fuel stations with a 40' trailer isn't ideal so let's upgrade to a 52 gallon aftermarket tank to try and reduce our fuel stops when on the road and hopefully avoid having to pull into smaller stations that aren't as friendly for larger rigs! As always, thanks for watching!

    Brother if you honestly knew how much your channel has helped me. I lost my dog a lil over a year ago and all id have to say is Duff dog is on and she'd be up in my lap she loved to watch tv especially if a dog was on. It was our thing Mortske in the morning and PFS in evening. Got me another dog and things are back to normal. Just wanted to say thanks again for giving me something to look fwd to on Mondays going on 4 years.. Now ill wait to see how long it takes for a pinned comment 😁✌️

    My 16 Lone Star is a "Crew Cab" ... I looked at Megacabs at first and chickened out. I ended up half ton, pasta-diesel, 6' 5" bed, and I think a 28 gallon tank. I think I'll get an upgraded stock tank eventually, but also a transfer tank/toolbox combo in the bed that fits under the tonneau cover. My truck is basically a rolling toolbox/recovery vehicle. I rock your D100 sticker on it, but still waiting on a 3rd or 4th gen sticker if you ever name your Megacab, or make a White Rhino (Ryan?) one.

    If you really want fuel mileage to get better, get a custom tune. You don’t need to remove the EGR or the DPF but you can turn them off and lengthen the life of your truck. They should be able to put in the new tank size in too.
    Ok bye ✌️

    Hey Mortske, glad to see MMR is back! Not to rub salt in the wound but are you sure there isn’t something wrong with that thing? 10mpg just seems incredibly low. I towed a U-Haul trailer (those things are ridiculously heavy) with a 6k lb Range Rover on it with my 240k mi 6.0 powerstroke 4wd Crew Cab and got 17mpg. It’s mostly stock, just exhaust and EGR delete, no tune or anything plus it’s on 37s. I can’t believe a 7yr newer diesel with smaller tires gets that much worse. I know your trailer is bigger, but you’re usually hauling lighter vehicles than that rover and I can’t imagine there’s enough difference to warrant that much worse mileage.

    1/4 of 52 gallons is 13 gallons. So I guess it's just getting used to the mentality of knowing that when you hit 1/4 tank you still have quite a lot of fuel remaining. I mean the entire fuel tank in my Land Rover Series 3 is only 12 gallons, so even at 1/4 tank you have more fuel than I do full.

    You could also leave that tank near empty if your going to launch a boat like the previous owner and maybe the truck would float.

    I used to look at those tanks. Never could make myself spend the dough though. How do you like the Hankooks?

    I have a titan tank in my 08, it's great having the extra capacity but not great to fill it up from 1/4 tank or less 😂 when I'm not pulling I average 22 mpg, and hauling my junk to a car show I get around 15

    Diesel became unfun around 2001 when bent you over at pump with no lube 😂 diesel prices went up big before that was cheaper than gas

    ON the computer not reading right, you should be able to go in with a scan tool and reprogram it for the gallons you need.

    Distance to empty.....if you have the right computer, can you change the fuel tank capacity? I love the idea of a bigger tank, but that would drive me nuts!
