The Fuelbox: The Smarter Way to Haul Fuel and Tools Across Texas
If you run a ranch truck, haul equipment, or work far from a fuel station, running out of range or room costs you time. That’s where The Fuelbox comes in.
The Fuelbox puts an auxiliary fuel tank and a lockable toolbox in one aluminum unit, so you get both without giving up your bed. It works as an auxiliary tank, a transfer tank, or both.
What Is The Fuelbox?
The Fuelbox merges two essentials: fuel capacity and secure storage, into one sleek unit, built from marine-grade aluminum to hold up to daily use. The FuelBox is made in the USA and is part of Mil-Spec, the same company behind the spray-in bed liner we use. Its home base is Springdale, Arkansas.
Drivers can choose from a range of options to fit their needs:
- Fuel Tank/Toolbox Combos: The most popular configuration, offering the best balance of storage and capacity.
- In-Bed Auxiliary Tanks: Ideal for long distance haulers and heavy duty operations.
- Standalone Toolboxes: For those who need secure gear storage without the extra fuel.
Each product is tailored to fit your specific truck. Simply match by make, model, bed configuration, and year, and you’ll find a setup that integrates seamlessly into your rig.
Built to Haul with Precision
Every Fuelbox is engineered for performance and practicality. With options ranging from 37 to 87 gallons, there’s a model for every rig and job. The FTC60B model, for instance, sits flush with most bed rails while clearing gooseneck and 5th-wheel hitches, perfect for Texas ranchers, contractors, and anyone pulling a trailer.
Smaller options like the FTC44 (40 gallons) still give you plenty of tool storage. Paired with the Fuelbox Auto Fuel Controller, the system can automatically transfer diesel to your factory tank as you drive.
Save Time and Money on the Road
Fuel stops are part of the job, but they don’t have to slow you down. With a larger tank, you can plan your fill-ups strategically, topping off where prices are best and avoiding expensive or inconvenient stations. Over time, the savings in both fuel cost and time spent idling can make a noticeable difference.
Smart Design for Everyday Function
The Fuelbox eliminates the age-old compromise between storage and fuel. With its dual-purpose design, you get both without losing valuable bed space. The lid seals tight against dust and moisture, keeping your tools protected from the elements, while the tank’s venting and transfer systems are designed for smooth, dependable operation.
Fuelbox also makes PC12 “pork chop” toolboxes that fit behind the wheel wells, for extra storage without giving up bed space.
Reliability You Can Trust
Every Fuelbox product is DOT legal for diesel use and built for the toughest work environments. The rugged aluminum construction resists corrosion, while reinforced seams and secure locking mechanisms ensure everything stays protected. Many truck owners also appreciate that each unit comes ready for installation, making it easy to integrate with standard bed setups.
Popular models include:
- FTC90 (87 GAL): Maximum fuel capacity for long-distance hauling.
- FTC60B (57 GAL): Flush mounted design that fits with most hitch setups.
- FTC44 (40 GAL): Combines moderate capacity with expanded toolbox space.
- PC12: Pork chop toolboxes that fit behind the wheel wells.
