Wish in one hand and spit in the other...

I want one of these bad. You never know when you're going to find cheap fuel or be stranded and need a reserve. The fuel cap to the 40 gallon tank is discretely located under the tool box lid to hide/discourage any theft. The all in one design also helps disguise the fact it's a fuel tank.

But, my recent trip to the shop has caused a major fundulation situation. Having to work on the engine really threw a monkey wrench in my gameplan .

I want to Line-X the bed, then mount the CB antennae and back-up cam to the new toolbox/fueltank combo so I can see my GN hitch. Unfortunately, I spent that money on a new head.

I can go without the Line-X and new toolbox/fueltank, but I need to install the CB now and that's going to make things difficult later on. I have to leave room to modify the antennae mount when I finally do add the new toolbox without permanently marring anything in the process.

There was one very similar to that on Craigs list a few weeks back. Cheap. Although, I think it was more like the one I have. The filler tube is on top and not in the toolbox. If my memory serves me right, it was around $250-300.
