Recommended Jerry Cans

I think hes looking more at the configuration. The size, handles and spout etc. Vs the traditional "red plastic jug" which are all basically the same.

 

I picked up a 4th Midwest can last week. A little one gallon to use for diesel for my chinese heater. Exact same spout / cap / threads as the regular 5-gallon size which is awesome so everything is interchangeable.

If you dont mind steel (I havent had any issues in over 5 years) Id again highly recommend the Midwest brand, especially for the price

 

I think the big thing for me is I am not worried about the can abrading from the jerry can holder. Especially for the smaller cans that don't really have a good mount for. I really wanted a smaller can that could stack to fit in a holder for the larger, standard 20L jerry can. So I can carry diesel for the diesel heater and water or extra gas.

 

Get whatever can fits your storage and seals well. Then get a decent siphon and you won’t care if the spout is hard to use or spills all over the side of the truck… Or you realize that you can’t get all the gas out because of the shortness of the spout and you can’t tilt it up any more without hitting the bedside/shell/camper/bed rack/et al.

 

I was looking at these too- I have a molle panel system( cali raised) in my bed and im trying to find a way to mount the wavian cans to it. any good mounts?

 

I run these for mine. You might be able to
Modify to connect to Molle.
