Do you carry?

I've got 91 gallons in the bed.

I do not let my fuel get that low. Most newer rigs have the fuel pump in the tank. The fuel is used to keep the pump from overheating and failing.

I never have, and also have not run out of fuel. I have (by choice) been fairly low a couple times because of unreasonably high prices at gas stations. My class C (with a 55 gallon tank) can go about 400 miles on a tank of gas.

I just got back from a trip around Alaska. The longest stretch of road without services I was on was traveling along the Dalton Highway where is a span of about 240 miles between Coldfoot and Deadhorsse with no gas available. Usually it was less than, say, 50 miles between stations...not always, but usually.

what guidry said ^^ (2 x 100 gals tanks)

I installed a Blitz 5 gallon lockable carrier on my trailer bumper. It did require drilling a few new holes and added angle pieces to make it rock solid. (And a few extra holes were left behind from trial and error!)

I too have carried gas for the generator. But we will be taking a cross country trip next year so I'm planning to carry more than 2 gallons.Wish I had a diesel so I could add an auxilary tank.

Why can't you put an aux in that gasser?

I REALLY can't figure out how folks run out of fuel. With todays technology, road maps, fuel gages, trip meters, etc, it's beyond my comprehension. But that's just me.

I don't carry extra fuel.

New to me coach +
fuel gauge off by 1/4 tank +
wasn't getting a full fillup due to a loop in the tank vent line =

running out of fuel on I-10.

Thanks Coach-Net

I carry two 6 gal gas containers.
One is filled with 2 gals fuel at all times.

And here's why. Other than running out of fuel.

I have been at a CG SEVERAL times where the power has gone out from a storm or internal electrical power problems.

Yes I have a gen for supplemental power on the MH. And when that MH gas gauge even sniffs 1/4 tank my gen shuts off.

When a tornado hit the CG I was staying at the power was down for a week. Because I had those gas cans on board I was able to go get fuel and fill my MH up to keep the gen running for the duration of the power outage without having to pack up everything and try to move the MH thru downed trees and closed roads to get gas.

I might if I were headed someplace truly "out there" (like the drive to AK) - our van only has a 25 gallon gas tank. All it would take is one outpost fuel station to not be working, and we could be in trouble. Otherwise, no.
