Andrew -
Let's see - 40 gallons x 8 lbs = 320 lbs, or like carrying around 2 extra
adults. That has to cost something in MPG, and certainly in performance.
Its probably a necessity to carry that much fuel if you're running in the
Paris-Dakar rallye, but not too practical in most of the USA!

There was a spare 20 gallon tank in the trunk of my 115 1976 300D. It
was rectangular. Total fill up was 40 gallons, or about a month of
driving (1,000 miles).
