Under slung tanks would probably be the only way to fit more LPG

Ah I was hoping to avoid the underslung tanks. I don't even know if I would have to clearance.

I have seen guys with two on the tongue. Might have been a custom setup.

Might have to go nuclear.

You probably could go with a single 100lbs bottle and pick up extra hose from a propane supplier

Try to get the new composite tanks they are way lighter. In not sure if they make 30s but worth an ask.

I suggest doing a little research and inform your self on this, i believe there is DOT regulation or even federal regulation on the propane tank size and amount you legally can carry(transport) on your trailer or in a vehicle before having to be license for dangerous goods. I believe if they are automotive style tanks permanently bolted to the frame they can be larger then an RV style. Either way you can't just mount a large propane tank legally, there is a maximum size limit.

I was thinking of having a forklift tank mounted horizontally on the front of the v-nose, make a nice cover and you are done. I am sure this would last the weekend in the cold weather.
