Oh yeah huge rims with small tires on a 4x2 look great. They sure fill out the wheel wells nicely.

Thanks Colin I have the mod bug bad allreaddy. Priced out an edge programer, and a whole ton of tires and rims today. I guess one of these days I have to figure out how to install my in dash dvd player too! I tell you though, one of the first mods I am going to do is the harpoon mod.

I plan on doing that this summer to. I don't know about your truck but mine doesn't even make the full mark when the pump clicks off the first time. I am still saving my pennies for 4" exhaust and gauges and the list goes on. Keep an eye out on ebay I have seen some good deals on there for programers.

I talked to him for awhile joe, but its really hard for me to go out of the way that far for it.

Colin Im not sure where my fuel gauge reads either, but I know I can squeeze alot more fuel in it then when the pump clicks!

It is a design flaw in the tank. The breather tube in the tank is a about six inches long and soon is it is covered by the fuel the pump will cut off. On my truck I can put in almost 30 litres after the pump clicks off, if I take my time.

That would be a bit of a pain to stand there and top off the tank.

Oh yeah it is a pain. Its worth it though. Im actually looking for a larger tank for a decent price. I can go pretty far now, but if I got a larger tank i could drive the whole way from here back to nipawin without having to stop and fill up!

Paso1 has a nice ploished aluminum 90 gallon semi tank bolted in the back of his box.
We cruised most of the way to California and back with very few fuel stops.
