They chewed the evaporator hose on top of the gas tank on my truck listed above.
Dealer says need new gas tank for $1,500.00.
Wondering if that is correct or can just the hose be replaced?
Thanks!

Hello, I'm Danny.
I find that hard to believe that they want to sell you a tank assembly! All fuel and emission lines are removable. I would contact your local parts stores first before you head to the more expensive Dodge dealer. Contact the Dodge dealer parts department as a last resort. I've attached a picture below of the hose diagram. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros.
