Lesli,
Working for Isuzu I thought I'd better comment!
Isozu do not service a genuine long range tank. They are available from ARB or Long Ranger in either a 125 ltr or 145 ltr format, take approx 3hrs to be fitted. The down side is that for a "serious" off roader there is a loss of ground clearance, and you could "belly out". I dont think this would present much of a problem driving around normal trial sites though !
Jeff gives good advice, but ALL DMax's are diesel unlike the Colorado (Holden) that had V6 petrol or diesel options.
The other alternative to increase economy is to change the "chip" in the ECM (computer). The downside here is that towing and acceleration performance is reduced to achieve the economy.
Hope that helps
regards
Allan
