I received a new catalog from CheaperThanDirt a couple of days ago. They have Czech 1 Gallon Fuel Cans that look interesting. Has anyone used these? I am thinking about getting a couple to mount to the Jeep. Obviously they don't hold a lot of fuel. I am concerned about the weight of mounting standard jerry cans to my nearly stock jeep.

Any thoughts or experience with these?

 

Is it this?

That is the one.

 

That is cool. doesn't take up much space. If you are concerned with the weight though, just don't fill up the 5 gal cans full. So this way you will always have the right container in case you do decide to carry max fuel. Besides, you'll start getting more performance parts anyway. The 5 gal cans are not much more than that 1 gal tank

 

Hmm, those are neat.
I already have a couple of 5 gal cans on my carrier, but I'm trying to think of a reason I need to order 2 of those just cuz I like 'em!

 

it is bigger than 1 gallon, 5 liter is slightly more....

 

It does have a rugged look. Goes with the Jeep.

 

I always thought 5gal was more than 1gal

 

Are those used?

i read the reviews and people said they smelled like oil and they had surface rust and were a little rough on the outside those little guys can only get you so far when we're all gettin' ~15 mpg some of us less

 

whoops...my fault for not being more specific.

Sorry, you were confused and didn't infer I was talking about the price. I had gone to the website the op referenced and priced the 5 gal vs. the 1 gal that he was inquiring about. You are correct, volume capacity of a 5 gal container is more than that of a 1 gal container. Can you calculate how much?

Btw, if you went back and read my post again, imagine for a sec that I was talking about capacity, it would still state that 5 gal is more than 1 gal.

I'm just teasing you. I should have been more specific.
