My extra gas is stored in 2.5 gallon plastic containers, one is OK for
most trips, two for way off the beaten path. One Vanagon owner I met
had a great setup which I am considering: he bought a plastic 6 gallon
gas tank for an outboard boat motor and cut off the fitting that
attaches to the motor. When you want to fill up the Vanagon tank, just
uncoil the hose and stick it in the filler! No need to remove from
roof.
