Not to mention having extra storage in the cab, getting rid of fumes, and adding safety in the event of a crash.
Agreed. Im currently going to fab a piece for my filler neck on the inside of the cab so it sticks out the right amount then tack weld it place so i can keep the original filler. Maybe even make it into something cool like a spare key hider. I mean honestly who would think to look inside what they think is the filler neck for some keys
