Default gas cans

metal gas can? what is the average price the metal gas can you see on the rear tire carriers. I'm asking for an average realizing there are probably more than one companie that makes them. see I got some used ones(gonna need some paint) but other than that they are in good shape. I can see a big "G" on the side and "BLITZ" closer to the bottom if that helps. just wanna know cuz a buddy gave them to me and said, find out what they're worth and make me an offer.

Yep. x2. They're expensive. In my opinion, a rip off. For me it was worth the money because I use mine just about every other time I wheel (lots of camping and extensive Jeep road driving). So for a clearer answer, you're looking at around $50.

I picked up a couple of brand new Blitz CARB approved Cans for $39.99 + $7 shipping. Came to about $87.00 for two shipped to my door.

If you buy used, check the inside for rust build up.
