Question on cost of gas tank... (mine is leaking) - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

For the last few months I've been noticing a very strong smell of gasoline in my truck. At first I thought it was just the gas cap venting and some of the fumes going into the truck in this hot weather, but it's gotten so bad lately that I dug a little deeper.

I cleaned the bottom off and found a tiny little pin hole. It's so small I missed it the first time I checked.

I looked at the cost of tanks and found they cost between $150 to over $200.

What is the difference in the tank that there is such a wide cost margin?
