Is the standard gas tank on the eTorque Hemi 23 gallons or 26?

was in the same boat. two things i don't like about my truck, the gas tank and the gears... gears are easy to change, the gas tank... jury still out.

It seems to vary by year, model, engine. As soon as some things are selected, the standard tank changes. Going to the build and price, one of the standards went from 26 to 32, by changing 4wd to 2wd. 32 isn't even an option with 4wd.
32 gallons isn't an option no matter what you order on a 5th gen. It's 23, 26, or 33. 32 gallons was an option on 4th gens.

According to the build and price, if you build a 2wd I think it was limited and maybe long bed, I don't remember, it says 32. I'm just stating what Ram lists.
I'm not seeing that. The only fuel tank size option for any 5th gen 1500 Limited (2wd, 4wd, short bed, long bed) is 33 gallon since the 26 gallon tank is standard for that model. The ramtrucks.com website is definitely prone to errors though. Maybe it listed that for a time, but if so it's fixed now.

Wouldn't surprise me. The website sucks. They do list the 33 gallon Canadian tank in British gallons as 27.3 or something, while the 26 is listed in US gallons.
Yeah, the website definitely has issues.

Last one I had was 2019 Laramie I ordered it with a 33 gallon tank it came standard with 26. Same with this 2023 Laramie Sport it came standard with 26 but I took the optional 33 gallon tank. Love not having to fill up until I'm ready....some times I will wait longer if on week ends to fill for price drops in early weeks where I could wait to fill. I also would be one who hates to run much below 1/4 tank before filling up so I can keep all dirt in the bottom of the tank.

My 2019 Ram Limited 4wd, 5.7 bed came with the 26 gal tank. I use this truck as a tow vehicle and was thinking of swapping out the 26 gallon tank for the 33 gallon tank. Does anyone on here know where to find the 33 gallon tank and about how much it would cost to do the swap and if it would fit?

I would suggest a junkyard. The option is $445, so the parts would undoubtedly cost more. I imagine it takes a different sending unit and tank straps, besides the tank itself.

It has been done by people on here I’m pretty sure there is a post about it.

with your 4X4 it is not so easy to change the gears
last i heard the front is not available
lots on the forum have changed the tank
There are threads with this information. I priced out the parts a couple years ago and it seems like it was in the $2k range. I ended up trading that truck in for one with the big tank so I never did the swap, but like others have said there are members here who have done this swap and threads with that information. It might take a while to search for them but if you're serious about the swap it's worth taking the time to search.

gears don’t worry me as much. realize it’s not the same as live axle gear swaps.… the tank does. i’ve seen some talk about guys swapping tanks but i hadn’t researched it too much. need to

Retrofitting the 33 gallon tank
Anyone know how feasible swapping gas tanks would be? My mileage thus far has been pretty terrible and I’m kinda regretting not getting the larger gas tank. I would think it could dropped in and replace/recalibrate the fuel level sensor.
