How do you carry extra gas
Any good ideas on carriers for extra gas on a 2005?

Re: How do you carry extra gas
I don't carry extra gas, I've never found myself more than half an hour's drive from gas...

Re: How do you carry extra gas
A few people in our club have jerry can carriers on their aftermarket bumpers. However, like OffroadX mentions, I've never been worried about gas, usually only going through half a tank max in a day of wheeling.
Plus if you have extra gas the other people in your group don't so it doesn't really do you any good to be able to travel farther than the people you're with. |

Re: How do you carry extra gas
i really find that hard to believe a all day 4 wheeling on one tank of gas. i would like to know how many miles you put on in that day. everyones definition of wheeling and all day can be differant than mine. thanks

Re: How do you carry extra gas
I always fuel up at the closest station near the trailhead. But I also carry a 5 gallon Jerry can on my rear bumper not to use if I run out driving, but if I tear a fuel or run into someone who didn't plan well. I worry about snagging the line under the chassis near the fuel filter.
