I bought a new '74 W200, reg cab and long bed. It had just one tank, underneath the truck, I thought that was the first year ... also a new '76, same thing.

My 78 D300, 73 W200, 75 W100 had a in-cab and a saddle tank. My 73 D100 Cub Cab had a saddle tank but the filler tube went through the cab. My 73 D100 SB only had a cab. My 80 D150 only has a saddle tank.

And you said dual tanks. So one in cab and A front saddle tank than like most 70s are?
Dual tanks with a factory switch, yes. One fill cap on the cab, the other to the front of the bed, same side. Someone suggested that the cab fill tube might run to a saddle tank instead of a tank behind the seat. I'd not thought of that. I didn't look behind the seat for a tank. I just thought it was there, and might have been. I don't know.

When did they stop putting the tanks behind the seat? I looked at a 77 D 100 yesterday with dual tanks. The first was in the cab, the other was where I expected to find it. Everything looked factory. I was just surprised to find a tank in the cab that late in the 70s.
I had a govt BLM power wagon crew cab, and it had dual tanks, one in cab, and one in fram in the usual spot. My truck was an 80...so I am guessing special placement per the feds...
