carrying extra fuel

Robin,

do you/have you used these? If so, do you recommend.
looking at somthing like this for CSR trip after the gathering. Want to be able to fold up for storeage as I won't be needing all the time on our trip!

No Evern , I have not personnaly used that device - but it works well on a motorbike at least.

I have the same problem of driving petrol car up Canning in two weeks following the gathering. I am hoping to get a share of a drum , but still need to carry some 300 liters and I already have long range tank.
I have used a few stragergies in the past from using wine caskets (emergency only) to saving up my empty oil containers and tieing then under the car , filling up before the rough stuff , then cutting them up when empty as they are thin.

However my current best stratergy is to carry empty fuel containers outside the car in an easy fashion until needed , filling them up and stuffing them somewhere in the car where they usually get used up in the first day or 2 , then putting them back outside the car.

I think one of my pictures shows a special bag I made which neatly holds 2 jerries (empty) side by side across the spare wheel.
Works really well in practise , as I won't carry things on roof, and I think there is the potential to increase this to up to 5 plastic jerries for the trip - each jerry can hold 22lt easily (24 if pushed to limit).

Thanks for your help. I have a diesel land cruiser and will be heading to canning etc this year. So am trying to work out the best way to carry an extra 50 litres besides jeery cans.
