Does anyone run an Extended Fuel Tank on their Rig? I was looking into LRM's Tanks. Pro's and Cons?

I run one on my 2013 Toyota Tacoma.
Pro:
It gives me about 150 extra miles to a tank full.
Con:
They are expensive.
For Tacomas there is a weird thing with the vent line. I have not been involved with a Jeep install yet.
An FYI:
If you are in California, these are not CARB certified yet. It didn't stop me and I have no regrets getting it. Just something to be aware of.
Edit
Pro:
It fits in the same place as my original tank was.
I do not have to carry fuel containers and have more storage inside for other things.

I just carry two 5 gallon cans if I’m traveling where fuel could be a problem.

I can mount a pair of GI cans to my swing out tire carrier. Good for 150 miles off road.
