I really hate my fuel cell. It takes up almost half the already limited cargo area space in my 4runner, I haven't come up with a mount for it yet because I'm really not sure I want to keep it. It only holds 10 gallons too. If it held 20 or more I'd be much more willing to deal with it being in the way. Should I get an original tank or just keep the cell? Keeping in mind that I have to put a 35" spare tire in there also, along with camping gear/coolers etc. The truck has an 1.5 inch body lift on it so I can get a tank a bit higher than it was originally, but I think it's still gonna hang up on the rocks. Give my your opinions. Pro's and cons of each.
 
this is what it looks like. Ignore the 2x4s. They are there because it has a well in the bottom so it won't set flat on the floor. (Another thing I hate about it.)

You could get a ford gas tank and mount it in the rear between the frame rails.....then you'll have your cargo space back....and no gas smell
