Tonneau cover with auxillary fuel tank

Does anyone use a tonneau cover and have an auxiliary fuel tank in bed of truck? I want to be able to cover fuel tank and hitch when not towing. Have to be able to get to tank to fill it. if you do, could you let me know what brand and model using.

Yes,
I have a 50 gallon transfer flow under the rail tank and a truxedo roll up tonneau cover. The cover is hinged so I can refuel by opening the cover from the cab end.

Do you have any trouble with kingpin hitting side rails while backing into a site that is sloped? I had a different model of truxedo cover on my previous truck and my kingpin would hit too of rails at times and cut into aluminum rails.

Titan fuel tanks offers replacement under belly tanks that will replace your stock tank wit a 62 gallon tank. this leaves your bed freed up

I use a RDS tank tool box combo in this Ford. Gravity fill. Truxedo roll up cover. The cover rolls above the tank. Had this same set up on my 2011 Ford too.
The rails only hang inside the box an inch or two. I haven't hit them before.
If you are hitting the rails, see if you can raise your hitch and raise your pin box. It will clear the rails then.

I have plenty of space. I'm using a b&w hitch that is height adjustable. (My former slider wasn't)
