Hi Bret,
Not just someone, my wife !!!

Anyway, that has just incentivised me to get the truck sorted sooner.

In the mean time I have been playing with some other ideas.

With the New Grizz Redneck Express truck, I want to increase my fuel capacity (well, at least create a decent backup for long trips)

I want to take a 20 litre steel boat petrol tank and change the neck on it, and make a jerry can for the truck.

I am not sure I want to plumb it into the system, rather have it loose so that it does not take up space in the rear when not needed.

However, at times like taking the truck and Grizz-Pod Trailer to meetings, it would be nice to have some backup fuel stashed in something other than a plastic Jerry can.

I plan on changing the filler neck safely to get a better pouring spout.

Any leads, tips and advice, or petrol tanks appreciated.

Something like this......
