For the longest time I have been filling the skid loader, tractor, temp heaters, etc. with 5 gallon diesel cans. I continue to say I will pick up a cheap farm tank, but put it off when I see a nice one for sale. I'm also not terribly impressed with the appearance and can't decide where to put one.
Long term, I think I'll set up a hidden fuel tank and pipe it so I can fill my truck as well with really clean fuel.
In the meantime, I am thinking about building a trailer to hold a 50-100 gallon diesel tank. Options include the HF trailers (the 4' one would be nice but the wheelbase may be too short, worried about jack-knifing it in winter easily?), a complete DIY, or picking up a used other trailer. I've had a HF diesel pump for probably 3 years I've never used until today filled the skid loader with it and I'll never go back to 5 gallon cans and funnels!
Has anyone built a fuel trailer?
