You know initially, I thought this thread was kind of a dumb premise, but now, I really am appreciative of this thread. Quite possibly my favorite thread which I will more than likely be ongoingly posting in.

Shocker!! The guy who drinks Everclear makes a lot of drunk purchases!? :CWL:


So for those of you who don't know, what you need to have a good polyethylene fuel canister is a HIGH DENSITY polyethylene fuel canister. This being said, a lot of companies who make both water canisters and fuel canisters, make them from the same product, and then tag on two different prices. Because people will happily pay $120+ for a 5 gallon fuel canister, but no one in the right mind would pay more than $80 for a 5 gallon water canister.

That being said, rough country is selling these HIGH DENSITY polyethylene "water" canisters, which just so happens to have a lot of features you would need if you stored fuel in it, but only one of which (UV Protection) you would need to store water in it. But it's definitely not designed for fuel, because that would make too much sense! :LOL: :facepalm: :giggle:

Amazon link HERE because at the end of the day, Amazon will deliver it to you quicker than Rough Country would, free of shipping charges, with possibly the best refund policy on the planet! 🤗

I actually just received it tonight. I'll open it up sometime this weekend, and fill it up with diesel fuel, I'll let it sit in the garage for 24 hours and then if it doesn't melt the plastic, I'll put it on the roof rack of the Wrangler. Might even order a second one because why not!

They only sell it in tan and gray, I wish they sold it in army green, but beggars can't be choosers! 🤷‍♂️


EDIT: I guess I should probably state that though I may be more free-spirited when I'm drunk, I tend to keep my wits about me. I'm not the kind of person who's going to make a purchase based on misunderstood ideas, and then go and spend money on it. I am the kind of person who would take concrete ideas, and then purchase something I otherwise wouldn't when I'm drunk. Basically my wallet opens a lot easier when I'm drinking. ;)

Just thought I'd clarify, cuz this post probably sounds like a coherent sober mind, when in fact it was most definitely a drunk purchase!

Ordered. And I am a bit lit, lol. Now I just need a way to mount it. I like the side window mount. Just unsure if it will hold up to lots of miles on bad roads.

So are you finally admitting that your decision to get the eco-dudsel was in fact fueled by e95‽

What's "e95‽" ❓
Isn't e95 the term for fuel made with 95% ethanol, much like the lower e10 and e15 were labeled until e10 just became the new normal? Cause that's how I was using it to imply you were already wasted when you bought the diesel to begin with.

Naww, I bought the diesel because I do a lot of highway driving, and diesels are good with highway driving. Also too, no emissions testing where I live in Texas on diesels. So I never have to worry about my vehicle not passing inspection.

Also, at the time the 392 wasn't released, and the options were the 3.6, the 2.0, and the 3.0. Obviously the diesel is going to be best suited for off-roading with its 400+ torque. The 2.0 is getting high torque output too, but let's be honest, a 4-cylinder turbocharged 2 liter engine isn't going to have the lasting power that a 6-cylinder 3 liter turbocharged diesel will... Once you delete it that is. 🤪 ;) :like:

Add in the fact that my EcoDiesel has a stage 1 tune, so now I'm working with 522 torque... I'd like to see the 2.0 do that with a simple tune.

Basically for my use, that you could diesel was the best engine option!

Outdoor lights for the back porch, been meaning to buy some for years but just didn't have the confidence to do it until now!

Universal RGB LED interior lighting strips, four in a pack. Similar to the ones I already have installed in the wife Subaru, coupled with my Amazon purchased 1 to 3 auxiliary plug addition which I'll be installing tomorrow... Why 2x... I don't know, maybe I'll put one of them on the outside of the vehicle! :CWL: 🤪;)

At least ordering mods while drunk has one foot in productivity? I think a handful of people get trashed and then come on the forum to talk 💩
On a motorcycle forum that I used to frequent they call it PUI = posting under the influence.

. . . . . . . . . .

I may or may not have bought a Mopar 2” lift kit when on sale for 50% off on a forum sponsor’s website after a couple of bourbons while on vacation.

I’d blame Quadratech but to be fair I had been debating between Rubicon takeoffs or the Mopar 2” Kit for a bit. At $1050 and 🥃🥃🥃 now I still smile every time I hop up into the Jeep.

Oh and believe the posts. The 2” kit is more like 3-3.5”

From experience, I know that the 1.75 gal. Rotopax fuel carrier won't be bothered by the rigors of dual sport motorcycle use when secured to the top rack. I can't speak to the robustness of the ChiCom clones, but I'd wager they'd have an easier life on a Wrangler no matter its use case.
