I know I know search for it but the search function was acting screwy. Besides you never know what fresh perspective might be out there. I was thinking that if I could arrange a paid trip across to the states from Victoria once a month, it might save me mula to get the tank and fill up over there...

I had one custom built by a company in Prince George. I ordered it through a shop here in Edmonton but i'm sure you could get it built directly from this outfit and have it shipped to you.
Mine holds 185L and has a 4.5inch toolbox on the top of it. Just enough to hold tow ropes, cleaning supplies, jumper cables.....etc.
It is gravity fed with a solenoid controled by a switch right by my shifter.
I had mine installed because I just wasn't comfortable doing it myself and it ran about 1700 installed.

I've got a 150 gal. rectangular sitting behind the cab. 12V, 20 GPM pump and can literally go for weeks between fill-ups. At the local bulk fuel plant 150 gals. is the break point to get me a better price per gallon. Depending on current market prices I can save .20 cents or more per gallon. Definetly worth it if you don't mind sacrificing a little bed space. (Besides my quad handles our crappy roads a little better with a little weight it it)

i have a 230L one custom built also for the long trips and is plummed right into the tank, i can go about 2000.km before fill up, but the bad thing is it really hurts when you fill up. lol

You might look at kshmarine.com. They seemed to be the best price when I was hunting mine last year.
The product looked good before I had it coated.
