Title: Jerry Cans
Post by: tracker on December 02, 2014, 02:47:44 AM

    Just wondering??........I need to purchase jerry cans for my new CT.  Steel Vs plastic? and also what do most people carry in these 2 containers.    Water,Petrol,Diesel..I'm guessing it depends on your personal usage.......
               I will carry 100 Ltrs water in CT...and more than likely carry a gen set .   Look forward to getting feed back from those of you with all the experience
                                                                         Cheers Tracker.
                                                                                               PS.   only 3 more sleeps till i pick up new CT.

I would suggest you check the size of the Jerry can holders if fitted as they might
limit your choices. I would have liked to use plastic on my Vista but the only jerry
cans that I could find that would fit in the front holders were the Proquip metal
ones.

handy storage idea, if for some crazy reason you didn't put the alcohol in there... :)

Was thinking the same ^^^^.  Would save cutting the jerry can holders off to put a storage box on.  Might need to find some cheap jerry cans to cut up..........
