Just a note with carrying propane...

This is a good guide for propane regulations. Another article sums up some details. In open air, max 25 propane 20# (or 1000 pounds of LP gas total) cylinders before one has to get the sign and deal with more specific hazardous cargo regulations. In an enclosed vehicle, that number drops to four 20# cylinders, three 30# bottles.

    Since the first is not regulatory I'm having a difficult time seeing just how those two docs are even remotely usefull to us??? ... 1,000 lbs (REALLY!!) or even 3 #30lb bottles or should that be cylinders is a stretch for probably 99% of us here.
