Additional Fuel capacity

Does anyone know of where you can find a high capacity fuel tank for a 2006 F150 that is not only bolt up, works with factory guages, but without giving up bed capacity?

I'm basically looking for a Titan Fuel Tank for a F150, except Titan only makes them for Diesel trucks.

I think I saw that on Horsepower TV. Same basic layout as the tanks for the F150's.

What about the optional 35.7 gal tank that fit our trucks? Thats what mine has and it is grea! Except when it comes time to fill it up, especially last year when gas was past $4.20/gal, I had a few fuel ups over $140.00.

Yup, when I fill up my truck, I feel like I'm filling one of our armoured trucks from work. When the pump hits 125 Litres and is still clicking, you're just happy it's less than 10 Litres left. It's great and all, except when the price of gas goes to the $1.40/Litre it hit last year ($189CAD/tank).

I have an 04 SCREW and it says those thanks will only fit 250's and 350's, not 150's. Am I reading something wrong?

Yes, your reading it right. The only tank for gas 150's is for the 97-03 body. They don't have one for our body, so I guess we are SOL. Looks like our only option is the factory 35.7 gal tank, but you need a 145" WB or longer, they won't fit on a truck with a 126", 133", or 139" WB

That was a good link thank you. Apparently, just from reading Transfer Flow's website, its a pain to get ew fuel tanks for gasoline trucks. Stupid diesels....
