Not a dumb question at all! I have always thought about putting a spare tank under the van, either in the spaces beside the frame or in the big cavity over the transaxle. I keep an eye out for cheap alternatives. One of these days I will check out a farm supply store and see what they have. I think any reasonably strong tank would work, just put a hose from it to the fuel pump, add a tee fitting and a valve. Piece of cake or piece of crap? Who knows. I do agree that having even a couple extra gallons might come in handy on a long trip in the middle of nowhere, and I hate having a can in the vehicle.

Anyone done this or something like it?
