6. My SUV is diesel-powered, so I have a yellow five-gallon CARB diesel gas can in my garage, to throw in the truck if we have to bug-out. I've already read the various forum posts on storing extra gas to take with us if there's the chance of being caught in a traffic jam. I'm looking at roof-top basket racks to hold it. How would you lash it down to a roof rack basket if it didn't have welded gas can brackets on it already?
Whilst loading up the truck to head to Mississippi post Katrina, I carried 21 gallons on the roof rack. I have a Yakima Basketcase up there, which has a solid bottom to it. It's small, but good for bungee cording things to.
One thing that came to mind while convoying out, was that we were dragging all this unprotected stuff into a disaster area. So we stopped and got locking cables. Those got strung through the gas can handles.
