I think you did get a great deal. But what we say may have no effect on your feelings. Yes big truck like vehicles are heavy on fuel, petrol ones are just a tad more so. If you drive without heavy acceleration, that will save you some fuel. The three jerry cans could certainly be a cheap alternative to a long range tank, but at the cost of losing some storage room. If you want something strong and reliable, you've got it!

Go to sleep, think of how many places you can now traverse with confidence, soft sandy desert, muddy tracks, some water crossings, bush tracks, bitumen. You can cook your own meals, sleep highoff the ground in safe dry and comfort.


But you could sell all of that and buy a little fuel economical car that will let stay on the bitumen, have nowhere for extra fuel, be a struggke everytime you want to set up cooking needs, and repack tent into a cramped boot/trunk and rear seat.

Be a shame to miss all that our great country has to offer, because of a worry about a little more on fuel,


Just my thoughts, Raw and Honest. Hoping it offers a different angle to view your quandry.
