Many years ago, during the first US gas crisis, one of the solutions was to close gas stations on Sundays. I was in a situation where I had to make 600 mile round trips some weekends, driving my old sports car with 15mpg and 16 gallon tank. It had full size spare under the rear. My dad has a tank fabricated shaped like a tuna can and we mounted it where the spare tire went. It held 24 gallons! Most of the time I just put the spare in my apartment, when I needed to travel I strapped it on my luggage rack. For what a person would need to spend on a bunch or rotopax and expensive mounts, you could probably have a tank fabricated that could fit somewhere under the Jeep. (I haven't looked to see if there are any good sized open spaces under there.)So, I took off my spare tire and added a 5-gal jerrycan...
