Just make sure you use some bungee cords or something to keep them from sliding around.

NATO gas cans are a better idea.

I just bring one five gallon jug with me in the back of my truck. People think that the gas stations are few and far between, they're wrong! I carry it for me or incase someone needs it, like a biker or a fellow motorist.

I would be fun if the road went all the way up. The closest you can get is Prudhoe Bay. Long drive but very senic.

No road to Barrow, Bob. None. Illegal to offroad over tundra in North Slope Borough as the tracks last over a hundred years. The reason for ice roads during the winter months.
