Larger gas tanks for 2019 Expeditions?

[bushpilot]

I'd love to have the 49g tank that our '17 F350 crew cab, long bed (6.7L) diesel had...750 miles between fueling's was nice.

Any extended fuel tanks for us? F150s have a huge selection.

I am curious as well. I have suffered long distances between fuel stations under various conditions and I already wish my '20 had a 30 + gallon tank for peace of mind.

larger tanks are not available, and unlikely.
Ive spoken w/ titan and according to them there is no room under the Expy/Max - further their comments to me were:

the EPA/government has regulations which make it virtually impossible to do replacement or auxiliary tanks for gasoline. The gasoline tank is considered to be part of the EVAP system which is illegal to alter or tamper with in any way.

Fysa, the new gms have the same exact dize tanks as the expy now.

Transfer Flow has a pretty extensive pickup bed/replacement tank lineup, albeit nothing currently for the Expys.

They have also gone through what appears to be a pretty rigorous DOT CARB approval process for their tanks, etc. and have certs regarding it. Did not see whether every tank is approved as suitable replacement for any emission related equipment, however.

That being said, if there was a 35+ gallon tank that did not eat up too much ground clearance or lose the spare for $1500 +/- I'd buy it. I'd probably pay the $2K for the 44 gallon tank one as well.

YMMV

Titan has replacement (gas) tank for the f150 too....

the problem w/ the expy is there's just no room (even on my max)...and there is no space above the tank (like there is in a pickup truck) due to the cargo/people seating above.

Any tanks taking up the spare tire well (tire removed)?

I have a 2020 Platinum Max how big is / should my Gas tank be? Just got it but have yet to through a full tank of gas.

I loved my 36 gal tank in 2016 Ford F-150 Lariat 5.0L could go 700 miles on a tank was so awesome.

Its like 27 or 29 gallons, I forget.
Mine will go 700 miles on a tank on the highway. My bladder can't handle HALF that! lol

I have a 2016 Expy EL with a 33.5-gallon tank and for just around town I get about 450 to 475 depending on my right foot. When I bought it I looked at the 4th Gen but wanted the extra fuel since we tow a camper out west to Colorado to visit family. It came in handy a couple of times when I tried to get just a bit farther down the road.

If your going over 700miles in ur 18 expy max(28gal tank), your avg over 25mpg on the road, which is def doable at the right speed. I can imagine, with a 33 gal tank goin 65mph, an expy will go over a third of the country lengthwise without filling up.

Correct, you NEED to shut the stupid cruise control off. Its horribly wasteful!
