How big is the fuel tanks on these trucks?

So I filled up today. Gauge said I had 1/4 tank left and I put in 100 litres (roughly 26 gallons). Does that sound right? Or is my fuel gauge outta whack? Maybe I'm still in 1st gen mode where if I were to put 100 litres in, I'd be running on fumes.

35 gallons(long bed) but if you take your time filling up you can get closer to 39 gallons or you can just do the tank vent mod.
