We are a fuel company that just happens to have a bunch of tractors also! So we watch your channel as well as others. Good content. We buy some stuff here and there from JME. While this setup is sort of nice you should think differently. We deliver to a ton of farms and people with diesel equipment. What you can/should have bought is a 275 gallon heating oil/diesel tank. $600-$700 if you are getting contractor price. Legs, gauge, fill and vent and you can add any fillrite pump on to the top. 110v with hose for you. Still gonna cost $1600-$1700 but now you have 270 gallons or so of storage, the tank is rated for fuel and can be put inside - you throw a 30 foot hose and can fill outside, which is what you should be doing. The main benefit is you have a company like ours in your area come in and fill it with off road diesel. No having to drag it to the gas stations. Red dyed, no road tax being paid as your tractors don't need clear diesel for on road use will save lots of money also. The kubota dealers in our area do the same thing. Shame you aren't in our area we would trade you an implement and set you up, probably trade you tractor implements for fuel for a while also :) i.ytimg.com/vi/HeWUzjl-l0g/hqdefault.jpg

$1800? Yikes! I paid $200 for a 150 gal steel diesel tank at a local equipment auction and another $300 for a FillRite pump off Amazon . Hint: if you *have* to fill at the pump, go to a truck stop and use the high flow truck pump. It’ll fill that tank in 1/4 of the time. Better yet, call a fuel distributor and have them deliver dyed diesel. Ain’t nobody got that much time to sit at a regular gas station and pay road tax! Also, that SHOULD have a fuel and water filter installed. Don’t depend on your tractor filters to be the only line of defense.

The nub inside the nozzle let you know it's an auto shut off. Keep the manual one for when the auto one fails. I'm on my second one, but a flat screwdriver will work in a pinch to get fuel flowing. I second the flow meter on the other end of the hose as it is better protected. Store outside as well, the venting, vapors and likely no insurance in or near building is too risky.

you might look at AMTanks. If they are stackable when full that would help even more. Less room floor space taken by the tanks. I might even consider a 12VDC pump vs the 120VAC to allow for use in the field or other location where the additional fuel to the already owned transfer tank may be needed. You might look to see if that pump can be rotated 180 degrees putting the pump inlet on the tank fill side to clear the tank fill, or install a 45 or 90 fitting on the pump outlet to change the position of the hose so you do not have to keep un cam locking it to facilitate filling.

Old metal tanks are often in very good condition. Old diesel was a protectant. Look for a possible water line that may be corroded. New diesel is contaminated with biodiesel since it is transported in the same trucks. Biodiesel is very corrosive if any water gets in the tank. Biodiesel and alcohol in gasoline were intended to stop preppers not help the environment.

If they require 100 gallon minimum just make sure you have a few machines that need to be filled or topped off to make up the difference.

Hope that works out well for you, I'm kind of surprised that you didn't go with the 180 gallon tank. Your truck could handle it and your do have a regular fork lift don't you? My brother had a 120 gallon tank in his shop truck and it sure made that F350 ride smooth. I need to check that company out for fuel storage for my generator, Like you I go through lots of fuel after a hurricane and going daily to find someplace that is open to get fuel is a pain, you are either sitting in a line for hours or going a couple hundred miles to find open stations. And I can always use it during the year to keep the fuel in it fresh.

Diesel is one thing, but if you did a gas version you'd want to add fuel stabilizer unless you thought you would go through 80 gallons fairly quickly. Ethanol Gas is especially bad for aging... Stabil, for example, claims 2 years fuel life - but you need like 1 oz per 2 gallons.

I am surprised you have been using 5 gal cans all this time, especially with the 333G!! But if one of your trucks already has a transfer tank in the back, I can see why this hadn't happened yet. On the gasoline, my understanding is that you "have to/need to" set the container on the ground when you fill it at a gas station, or you risk static electricity igniting the gasoline vapors, so you only want a tank that you pick back up when it is full of fuel and put it back in your truck. Diesel is far less volatile so you are allowed to fill it without removing the tank from your vehicle. One Eye Customs did a video about the Scepter 14 gallon Flo-N-Go fuel caddies that he uses, looks like a good solution for gas and smaller amounts of diesel (they don't have one specifically for diesel, so you just mark one CLEARLY for that). Hint, if you set those higher than what you are trying to fill, they will gravity fill out of the hand nozzle. I bought a 58 gal Auxiliary fuel tank for diesel from John Dow Industries which works well for me, already had the larger auto-stop nozzle and delivers 10 gallons a minute, so it is fast! It does not have a 120 volt pump (that would be really nice....) but does have a 12 volt pump so you just need a vehicle battery. I like the idea of the fuel meter, may add that at the pump outlet just to keep track of how much is left in the tank. I don't have a fuel filter or water separator on my 58 gal tank, but I am looking at options there. Really, if I had seen the Scepter tanks first, I probably would have just gone that route with several of them for the amount of fuel I use.

Although you can haul diesel in the back of your pickup, the same is not so for gasoline. No container greater than five gallons and no more than four containers in a vehicle at one time.

The smaller diameter nozzle tube is for DEF tanks on semis. So that you can't inadvertently fill DEF with diesel. All the metal in that unit are Stainless Steel if it's for DEF.

Courtney, would you mind doing a test with a 1025R to see if you can lift that off a trailer and move? I see Diesel is like 7lbs per gallon and with it being full at 560lbs plus the tank, I'd be curious if us guys with 1025Rs as the biggest tractor can move it. I'm thinking it'd be pretty heavy but possible for the front lift with fork setup. Thinking it could work for sure at the rear 3pt with fork setup and a car hauler trailer to backup to it since that is rated to 758lbs.
