oldmanbill, Howdy;

Consider the weight of Propane is 4.2 lbs. per gal..
Should you find anyone to fill it they will only go to 80%
so that would be 23.6 gal of Propane so;
23.6 X 4.2 = 99.12 pounds added to the tank's empty weight
of roughly 70 lbs. so now you are trying to cope with about
170 lbs. of weight bouncing up & down at the very rear of your
truck and trying it's dangdest to tear up that fancy carrier you've
fashioned to shuffle it from point A to point B and back again.
Are we havin' fun yet???
