Is the tank not being DoT approved an issue if you are ever in a rear end collision?

FWIW: Fernando, the owner of Camping Lab, is a stand up guy. I've purchased products from him/Camping Lab and will again without reservation.
FWIW: I have a 25-gallon custom made aux tank on my Hundy. Normally it along with the OEM 25-gallon tank, for 50-gallons total, have been plenty o'fuel. However on a recent off-road explore trip in Nevada we did have to go into Tonopah for a refuel! 300+ miles off-road, locked much of the time and pulling a trailer does diminish fuel a little faster
.
If you travel fair distances between available fuel get the larger tank...you don't have to fill it all the time!
