Is that anything like a tonneau cover?

Could be depends on what part of the country you are from.

I knew when it came up that it was not looking right just not for sure how to spell correctly.

I'm looking for one for my '02 Chevy longbed and also am not interested in dropping $1000+ on one.

Sorry Northern Tool does not carry anything that will fit. I have a short bed truck with 7 inches of clearance under the box that holds the cover and about 9 inches between the box and the fifth wheel hitch. So it has to be L shaped. I have found two of them but I was just hoping someone knew where I could get one without all the gauges and pumps.

Have you thought about a midship replacement tank?

Little more pricey, but they dont take up any bed space. That's what I ended up doing as I too have a short-bed. My Titan tank is 50-52 gallons (depends who you ask) and fits in the factory tank location.

I also have an issue with not a large enough tanks. I have a gas GMC 8.1 liter and it only has a 27 gallon tank... Getting 7 miles a gallon pulling my fifth wheel, my range is terrible. I bought a Duramax Flow-n-go 14 gallon tank off of amazon. It is not a mounted permanent solution, but it does have a hose and lays flat in the box. I have not travelled with it yet, but I believe it will work good as a backup... only around $100..

Gassers are way more limited - no auxiliary tanks or mid-ship tanks AFAIK.

Diesel has a ton of options.

My tank is 32G last truck was 35. The difference is noticeable but I don't want to take away from my toolbox capacity. I modified one of these POS "safe" containers. I have only needed to use the 5 once. If I do anything different it would be a Titan 55G replacement tank. Parts are available on AMAZON.

Would be great but they don't custom build.
