I'm sure Ron or myself would LUV to be able to sell these and even stock
sized tanks IF truck freight (which costs big $$$) wasn't the only way to
ship these.  Too big for UPS.

Just so people know, the US Dealers make less than 22% on Vanagon gas tanks
based on the current price list I have.  The tank for a Pickup
(245-201-075D) is $1600.00us!  Other tanks range from $467 to $659 at the
dealer currently.
