Hey check out this Cabelas site. It has a cool Flat water tank and Flat Fuel Tank!
Flat Tanks!
They look like they would fit very nicely on the Gobi rack without taking up much space! You can even stack a bunch of stuff on top of it!

See what y'all think!

at 3.2gal each you'll need to stack a bunch

CO Hummer 02-14-2006 05:35 AM

Of course, nobody actually uses the spare fuel tanks. So looks are of most importance.

Fubar 02-14-2006 05:44 AM

thanks for clearing that up

shipbldr 02-14-2006 10:24 AM

Great. More crap I can stick on my Gobi rack...

MarineHawk 02-14-2006 10:33 AM

I like them. I guess you could also stack some in a plastic tub in the back.

h2co-pilot 02-14-2006 12:59 PM

I'm thinking it woul fit in the cooler nicely- maybe fill it with water or some margarita type of bev-er-age.

This is what you need on a Gobi for plenty of extra fuel.

Fubar 02-14-2006 02:14 PM

now that's more like it

12 gallons should be more than enough to you out of just about anywhere and back to civilization.

All you really need to do is make sure you go wheeling with Adam. He carries 80-90 gallons everywhere he goes.

Fubar 02-14-2006 02:34 PM

no disrespect to Adam but he wasn't with us much (with his H2) last trip now was he

Good point! I think we was out hiking most of the time.

Big Z 02-14-2006 02:48 PM

Got um three years ago for the ATVs.

Adam in CO 02-14-2006 03:21 PM

CO, it's only about 60-65 gallons.

Fubar, GFY.

Ric, they are kida cool.

KenP 02-14-2006 04:34 PM

Maybe I should get a couple dozen for the trip with Big Nasty across Kansas. That's gonna be scary this time.

I'm sure if I had extra time in the Library(Crapper) I would've found those too! I'm looking at the smaller ones as a multi-vehicle use product. Can use several for the Jeep/H2/H3 or use one or two for the ATV. I agree they are a little pricey, but what's walking atleat 25 miles in the desert or snow worth to you? Not to mention, it would make one hell of a cool bon-fire fuel source when you've been drinking all night!

I don't know about you, but the idea of a highly flammable liquid over my head in a vehicle loaded with electronics, well, makes me cringe a bit.

What is that trail they call I-70 rated anyway

ROX 02-16-2006 04:41 AM

How much weight would the 15 gallon tank add to the top of the car? About 80 lbs? That could come in handy when camping in remote areas.

Adam needs the extra fuel in case he needs to make a run for smokes.

Fubar 02-16-2006 05:16 AM

15x6=90lbs

The 3-4 places I checked online mostly said gasoline was around 6lbs per gallon

Thanks. Doesn't sound like it would be heavy enough to squash the rack.

You have no idea the wrath I endure just from being on the same floor. I can't imagine marinating in it for 4 or 5 days.

Ken, driving through Kansas is awesome if you just slow down enough to appreciate attractions like this:
