Trail'd Spare Gas Cans

[r2m]

Fair enough, as I get older I’m sure it’ll be less and less appealing but for now it seems pretty doable. There’s so much room under there that I don’t mind personally, but to each their own. Laying on the ground isn’t necessarily enjoyable, admittedly. Ideally everything is on the rear bumper, and eventually will be. If it’s this or on the roof for now though, it’s an easy choice for me. I’m shocked sometimes how much weight people are putting up there

Absolutely agree with you about ALL that room under there and I've twisted my brain on how best to utilize it.
Ideally I'd love to have an extra/aux fuel tank plumbed into my primary tank, but isn't legal in California.
My other idea was a small pancake air tank and mount that under there.
Here are some options:

1. Overland Water Storage for Adventurers | Trail'd - https://trailedonline.com/
2. Trail'd 6 Gallon Spare Water Tank - https://www.tacomalifestyle.com/products/traild-6-gallon-spare-water-tank?srsltid=AfmBOoqk-1RFc4gtenw8XB3UheBIpPxYMzBAeFJO5khbdjpTQpJDM9OR
3. 53 Litre Spare Wheel Well Water Tank For Under Vehicle + Mount Kit 750mm x 150mm - https://www.huntsmanproducts.com.au/products/53-litre-spare-wheel-water-tank?srsltid=AfmBOopLcr6aCMinfh5v6L3TuLujaYJ5aDzEfuOsHlKdfo4PuZHwtYvG
4. This one comes with a pump. Not sure if the pump is for fill AND drain or just drain: Tuff Terrain Spare Wheel Underbody Water Tank - 62L with 12v 3.8L Water Pump | Outback Equipment - https://www.outbackequipment.com.au/tuff-terrain-spare-wheel-underbody-water-tank-62l~705296?srsltid=AfmBOoo5FoEo6eIueD2bQSEpJzbf140gECFTR0M8GDn65ZQ-m9OGtbbJ

That last one is pretty sweet, I do remember looking at this or something similar awhile back. For the price I wouldn’t be able to build something myself and source a pump for a whole lot less so that could be a good option. Air tank could be nice to have but it’s also my understanding they have to be pretty large in order to make a big enough difference to justify the cost. After airing up like the first tire the tank pressure has dropped enough that the onboard air compressor is kicking back on anyway. Perhaps if you are using a different style setup, but that seemed to be the consensus when I looked into adding an accessory tank to my underhood arb compressor.

You're right about the air tank for airing up. After one tire, it's done, all the rest si with the compressor pumping.
I was thinking of the air tank for short bursts like air tools, blowing off dirt, snow or water, airing up beach toys, air horn, etc.

I would leave the spare tire underneath in the stock location, and mount any spare tanks on the rear bumper. How often are you using the spare tire vs. fuel/water tanks? If you are carrying extra gas, you'll want to dump it in the main tank as soon as possible (probably within the first day) as you're driving, so eventually the fuel weight will disappear. The weight of the tire will never change, so it make more sense to keep the spare down below.

You're assuming the spare tire even fits underneath! Unless your spare is stock or close to stock diameter, that's going to be dead space under there.I haven't been able to fit a spare under there since I've had my rig.
