Thread: Improving on the D4... designing the D5.

I just finished a trip with van attached. The single biggest issue was fuel capacity. The D4 needs a bigger fuel tank if you tow into remote areas. Experience shows that not all places have low flow pumps. Also something to watch for in wild areas is wrong pump nozzles fitted to diesel pumps. I found an Unleaded nozzle fitted to a diesel pump.

So that brings on another need mod. The ability to take a high flow nozzle.

My effective range with the van attached was 400klm that gave me a margin of around 80klm. In remote areas that can mean your walking.

I have to use a large nozzle almost every time so just hold the nozzle squarely against the bottom.
A decent sized tank is definitely on my list.
