Found a unicorn


I have a old empty jerry can on the back of my Ranger... seems to really discourage tailgating. ;missingteeth;
 
Around here it would encourage theft tho. If they couldn't get it loose they'd steal the whole truck for the gas jug. I have to keep mine in the house out of sight to keep it. Had 3 stolen in one summer.
 
If it gets stolen, it gets stolen. This rig lives in my shop 95% of the year, if something happens when I’m out on a camping trip I’ll be mad but I also don’t have much money invested into any of this.
 
Fuel & propane mount has survived about 4000 miles so far, we took it on a trip through Arkansas earlier this year and just got back from a week in Montana with a different group. I ended up running a 1/2" bolt through the square tube that it's mounted to in one spot rather than relying entirely on rivnuts.

I posted elsewhere about the Arkansas trip but not the Montana one. Not really much to say about that except it was pretty low key, lots of amazing scenery and some mild trails. I can't wait to go back!

Only problem we had was my alternator took a big shit on the way back. It started making a lot of noise when we were driving through Bozeman so I grabbed a spare. It lasted two days past that, making very little noise, but I pulled into a gas station in Spearfish on the way back home and it locked up so hard that the truck shut off right at the gas pump, hahaha. 10 minutes to swap in the new one and we were back on the road. I am pretty frustrated with Dakota Battery, they rebuilt this one twice fairly recently and said they won't warranty it because it's been more than 6 months. I like to support local businesses but everything I have had them fix has been done wrong or broken right out of warranty.

Couple pics - this was on top of Chrome Mountain:

This was my favorite camp site, near Arch Rock (south of Big Timber.) It was in an old burned out area so there were no trees to block the view - and there were two huge competing thunderstorms way to the north that night so the lightning show was amazing.

This one was good too, it was somewhere near the Picket Pin lakes. It was incredibly quiet. I don't think I have camped anywhere like that before, you could hear a pin drop all night. Until the next morning when we got buzzed by a helicopter that woke everyone up.
