Aluminum fuel tanks off of a semi are usually over 119 gallons. This makes it illegal for the common lay person to use them as a diesel transport container.
So how can these tanks be used as fuel tanks on a semi. Because any 15 year old can tell you cars have gas tanks of 20 or so gallons and big trucks have large diesel tanks. But even the most experienced fireman can not pick out what pickup has 200 gallons of diesel in the bed of the truck.

As stated by another poster the fines can be high. Just ask the company with a $75 million judgment against them about not putting proper placards on a truck.
