That took long enough to finally come out.
I have the 65 in my 2011. Going from 37 to 65 was a big jump
Going from 48 to 65 not so much. But when I get the new truck next year I will consider the big tank again. For me it's great for towing. Also have a 45 in the bed.
I have also contacted a marine tank builder to have a custom tank for the bed on the next truck. Will be plenty big and about the same price or less then the titan.

price per (additional) gallon of fuel makes these (OEM location) tanks really REALLY pricey.
AND the tank can't be reused (years later) when a new(er) truck is purchased.
$1359 (titan 65g) works out to $80 dollars per additional gallon of fuel (17 additional gallons).
for $1100 i added 40 gallons and only consumed 10" of bed space (depth)...thats $27 per additional gallon....
i can take the tank with me to any truck in the future....and i still have more space than a short bed.

All about options.
I had a Titan in my short bed GMC. When I listed the truck for sale I listed it with all the upgrades and without. I got multiple offers if I would sell the tank, typical offer was one half the cost (around $600 at the time).
I had discarded the original tank so those were no go offers.
When I put the Titan in the current truck I cleaned out the original, sealed it and have it in the basement.
Only takes about two hours to R&R, so when this truck gets traded the Titan will come out and I'm sure there will be a market for it.

the market for increased capacity (in older trucks) seems to diminish as the trucks age....maybe cause people dont wanna put the necessary money in an older truck (who knows).
an in bed tank can be sold to an owner of any make / model / year....I still get inquires from friends asking what I did w/ my "old" in-bed tank that I had in my 2004 F350...including GMC & Dodge owners.
