    I used to work at a gas station decades ago that charged $20 for the 1 gallon Jerrycans. It was really rough anytime I had to sell one, because the only people who need them are already desperate. Anytime I was working alone I would give them away.

    A great history lesson about the design, failings, and shortages of fuel containers, through the 20th century.

    We will need one or two Jerry Cans for the Tanami Road, next week.
