- Retired from Corrections....I have stories.
I carry two Roto-Paxs. Why? Because traveling across HWY 50, I almost ran out of fuel. There was no gas stations showing up on U-Connect, or Google Maps. I by chance found this old Bar out in the middle of NOWHERE with an above ground fuel tank. Think like the kind of place you see in a horror movie kind of place with the people to match.
My Jeep took 20.4 gallons of gas and it should be noted that the 4dr Jeep tank holds 21 gallons. It was close to 70 miles to the next gas station.
There are roads out west like this where you get gas at each gas station you pass.
The bar. It had a dude with a hole in his throat that was still smoking on the porch. A blonde chick that looked to be late twenties at the grill cooking. She had no teeth and maybe weighed 90 pounds,,,,,, Meth.... maybe...lol.
I have also wheeled in places where the locals told me get gas here as it is the last station. We pull in and the radio lights up with "why are we stopping I have 3/4 of a tank." It was 90 miles out into the desert to the trail, the trail was about 40 miles long, so 80 miles round trip, then 90 miles back to the station......... If you don't fill up, you probably will not make it back to the station.
So my tire carrier has Roto-Pax mounting points, When I got home, I added them.
