I'm planning on either one of the filler methods below (one would have a cap on the tank, the other will have a hose to the neck), either way i'm taking the easiest route and placing it in the bed of the floor. Only issue is that you have to lean over the tailgate to fill it up, or drop the gate. My truck isn't going to be that high and i'm 6'3" to it shouldn't matter. Then you have the chance of spilling gas on your wood bed during fill-up.
