I think gasoline would be a lot harder to have an aux tank, I carry diesel only and the valve is always open from the aux tank to the main tank.

I fill the main tank first then the aux tank, never had a problem w overflows and it doesn’t interfere with my hitch or my hard cover. It’s almost perfect except it’s not 60 gallons.

Haha.

We stayed at the Riverview RV Park in Fairbanks, and were happy with it. Most of the Fairbanks attractions and shopping were close. It's on the Chena River.

We did this on our F250.

I have a RDS tool box/fuel tank in the bed of my 08 2500 hd and don't regret the initial cost for a minute. 45 additional falling and still carry all my tools, etc. It's much less stressful not having to jockey my rig at unfamiliar gas stations. And the tank has paid for itself in fuel savings.

No offense, just being a gearhead here - the C60 wasnt produced in 1958 and the 327 didnt pop up until 62, and no, I didnt get my info from Ms Vito or the 2 yutes 😁

Ok I was only 10 yrs old at the time but the 327 came out of my uncles wrecked car. I must have the years mixed up in my addled old mind. I do know I watched my dad and him swap it out. And the truck was a 58 I know that so whatever the badge was I can't remember. It did have a 4sp and 2spd rear end.
