This is the best thing I have done so far. I used to think all the time when do I need to get fuel…. Now it’s never a worry
Oh yea, fill up us a bit expensive and sometimes I need to put my plastic in twice as I hit the dollar limit.

I ended up calling Titan a second time and speaking with their tech guy. I asked him what was the most likely thing that go wrong with the install. The answer basically boiled down to Titan has very specific instructions on how the OEM vent line needs to be run in addition to the second vent line that Titan adds to their GM 56 gallon tanks. The instructions that Titan sent with the tank are pretty clear.
The only warnings Titan will give you are:
1) There is no current re-programming solution for the miles to empty display. I'm not terribly worried about that feature while remembering when trucks were considered posh if they had power windows and an FM radio.
2) Titan also has a bulletin regarding the fuel sending unit. In some instances, it takes several fill ups for the sending unit to start responding accurately (the bulletin explains this process). My first call to Titan before I ever committed to buy the tank brought this issue up. The first Titan guy that helped me said the sending unit would read the same in the larger tank because full was "full", 3/4 was "3/4" an so on.
I give Titan 5 stars for customer service. On the second call, the rep actually went and pulled their tech guy off a job to visit with me.
I got my truck back last Friday and the shop that did it was very patient with my questions and I felt like they understood how to handle the install. After I filled up, I brought the truck back and they took one last look under the truck for any leaks and then we were done.
My goal here was peace of mind and having another 20 +/- gallons is certainly going to help.
