I wouldn't bet money on that. I bet you won't see a redesign like that until the next major update, at the very soonest. Upgrading the gas tank like that is a major engineering task.
We won’t see that unless/until federal MPG restrictions are lifted. Carrying 30gal of fuel is detrimental to fuel economy- not to mention payload ratings.
Does it? If the Gladiator has the same gas tank capacity as the JL, that's a 21.5 gallon fuel tank. A gallon of gas weighs approximately 6.3 pounds. That's a total of 135.45 pounds. If you increase it to a 30 gallon tank, that would total 189 pounds. Difference of 53.55 pounds. Doesn't seem that much of difference. If there's an aftermarket mod that would increase the fuel capacity on the JT, I would do it in a heartbeat.
That 53lbs, plus the weight of the larger tank, would both come off the payload rating, and slightly effect fuel economy. Heck, even a RAM 1500 only has a 25g tank, and while I’d love a factory option for 30, I just don’t see it happening.
I agree, I don't see it as a factory option. I do hope it'll be available aftermarket though. I don't mind the less fuel economy, but I do mind the more frequent trips to the gas station.
I put 50 gallon Titan tank on my F250 diesel and took to dealer who reprogrammed my computer for that tank and all my trip MPG data still is correct. And my range is 950 miles not towing anything.
22gal ;{
Yes Sir, cuz no where to put aux tank
I would like to see a Fuel Transfer tank in the bed that would fit under the hard cover. would be nice for refueling, ATV and generator.
My F 350 truck comes with a 48, YES 48 gallon tank...LOVE it
except when you have to fill it?
LOL at least it is not often...
