SVO secondary tanks

Can some of you SVO users post up some pics of your secondary tank in your truck for me? I'm looking for idea's. I have a shortbed which makes bed space a premium. I realize tank size will have a lot to do with this but for now I'm just looking for some ideas on what is what and how the fit and finish looks.

Thanks in advance!

I have Northern Tool's 70 gal vertical in aluminum. The beauty of this tank is the reasonable cost and it's only 13 inches deep. Although I have two stock tanks this is for extended road trips.

Clay, I'm assuming the tank is heated.... how hot does it get and how much heat transfers into the toolbox? I like the clean fit and finish.

Thanks Richard, love the 13 inch deep aspect though I'm not crazy about the vertical which seems to get up into your rear window a bit. Of course the price point is very attractive.

I have a hotfox heated pickup tube in the top of the tank. It doesn't have to heat the entire tank, only the oil it is consumming. The new tanks that Dinofuels is using has an extra coolant heater tube built in for additional heat (about 400% more heating surface than the hotfox) and that will likely heat the whole tank (in summer time especially) which is not nessecary but....

It's the exact height of my cross bed tool box which is just rear of the aux tank.
