Fuel tank

Any chance the Screw fuel tank would fit in the Scab? I don't have my Scab yet so I have no idea how much roon is under there. The extra 10 gallons would be nice.

Meh, don't mind fewer trips to the gas station, and 60 extra lbs isn't exactly noticeable. Only bummer is that many gas stations in CA have been ordered to remove their hold-open fuel nozzles. May be in the market for a giant binder clip the trend continues.

Oooohh the 2010 key fits perfectly in gas nozzles. We don't have any hold open nozzles around here. I've only been yelled at once when I used a lighter to stuff in the nozzle :eek:

You would like it, until you hit the pumps and about die because when your tank would normally top off, you still got 10 more gallons to go.

that $115 fill up would be quite a reality check!

Meh... my '08 FX4 SCrew had a 30 gallon tank. At the peak of gas prices out here (around $4.50 per), that would've been a $135 fill up if I ran it dry. The mileage on the SCab and the SCrew is the same... only I can go well over a 100 miles further on a tank. Besides, my commute is just over 4 miles to the office. My wife's is 2.
