I like it! May not be right for everyone, but hell it works for you. I want a 4bt, but the cost is huge. This on the other hand is Fairly cheap. Looks good,keep us posted.

it is actually a float in the tank if you would use psi it would be to unpredictiable because propane's psi is higher on a hot day than on a cold day it could go down to 45 psi on a hot day it could be up to 150 or more

Any updates showing the new 26 gallon tank installed? Was also wondering where you got the 26 gallon tank from as I might be looking into this for my next offroad rig.
