They need to be secured outside of the passenger compartment in a well-ventilated space. Most who transport extra fuel do so with containers affixed to the tailgate of overland-style SUV’s, using gas canisters designed for that purpose. Carrying home-style gas cans inside a vehicle over long distances is a recipe for disaster.

Thanks for the information.

Well, that is exactly what she did—She has a Camry sedan and used home-style gas cans sitting behind her on floor of rear passenger seat.

Good to know that there is a special gas can for transporting fuel...makes sense for boats, etc. I have one of those racks that fits on back of my SUV, so I guess I would be OK if I found the correct gas can.
