55 gallon tank mounted to a steel pallet, sitting on a steel wheeled dolly. Rotary pump and water block/particle filter. Easy to load in/out of the truck with pallet forks.

Very nice. I guess you'll haul that to the station to fill? I want to put together something that I can get bulk delivery and maybe save a few cents. Saving an old heating oil tank for that project.

Yeah, I can easily lift it in and out of the truck with pallet forks. Bulk delivery requires purchasing more fuel than I would use and it wouldn’t be fresh.

Where did you get the shiny metal framework on the base?

I have that same fill-rite pump. Do you find it very difficult to crank? I get about 20 turns and I'm suffering. I called them about it and they sent me a new one, but same thing.
I have a 50 gallon transfer tank, and a 115 gallon supply tank on my hybrid solar/kubota diesel generator power trailer, and it takes me for ever to keep it topped off. Last time, my wife and I shared crank duty.
