fuel cell ?

Hi Folks I do not want to beat a dead horse, i looked at the search guide and still have a question. I will problaby keep my gas tank in the cab as i can't put the gas tank under the bed ( dual exhaust run straight to the back of truck) Has anyone bought a fuel cell from summit and put it on the bed floor itself? Any comments or pitcures appreciated...Thanks...Russ

Maybe right in front of the wheel wells, you could still haul really big things.

Re: fuel cell ?

I have seen some mounted in the front of the bed. Even some mounted in a homemade truck box. Wouldn't it be cheaper to just have the rear pipes custom re-done to use a surburban or bed fill tank? You could turn them out in front of the rear tires.
