I appreciate this review 👍

Every time I see a shiny Land Rover with one of these things (sometimes two) bolted to the side, I say, "See, kids, here goes a fucking imbecile.".

Not only under sound they expand they do due to any hot weather too it’s only works in winter not in summer, I wish they used better quality more thicker.

Very true it’s cheap as shit mine rotopax expanded under the sun niw it never came back to its original shape it’s balloon 🎈 now it’s so cheap quality waste of money.

Thx dude you just save me a lot of pain.

Trash review! use better vocabulary dude

I agree! Short and Sweet Analogy of Garbage!

This video deserves way more credit. This is what inspired most of us about turbo dodges. Now I have a 86 Turbo Z CS Daytona and a 87 Shelby Z. Love the video.

Did you find a good mounting solution for the jerry cans you planned on using? After seeing your video I can no longer waste money on the rotopax system but the only two options I see for mounting jerry cans are 1. on the roof (not comfortable) or 2. get a rear bumper mod on my 4runner. Looks like Jerrys are too heavy for ladder or molle panel mounts.

Well, need to understand how any fuel can works to start with. Lock for that matter.

I've had the same RotoPax gas cans on my Jeep for years. Couple of points to avoid the issues this video points out. Plastic anything isn't designed to be exposed to sun/elements 24/7 for months on end. UV radiation from the sun degrades all plastic, including Rotopax which does last longer than others. Its amusing to me to see Jeeps/trucks all decked out with gas cans and plastic storage bin on racks just driving around in the city. I keep my Rotopax gas cans in the garage until I go out on a trip. Same with my fancy plastic storage bins that attached to my overhead rack. The same cans left out in the sun constantly will last a year or so. I've had the same Rotopax cans since 2009/2010, and they still look newish. The locking mounts are ESSENTIAL!!! Those cans are expensive. I've been on trips with friends, and when coming out of a hotel room in a popular offroading destination, those who didn't lock their cans up didn't have them the following morning. To keep the locks from getting gunked up, 1. don't leave them on the vehicle all the time. and clean them after a trip. 2. they make dry lube (NOT WD-40), lithium grease/dry. spray the locks prior to a trip. I've had the same locks since they first came out. The only mod was I removed the plastic part on the keys so they easily fit on a key chain.

LMFAO

I love mine. I have the updated version with an air release on the back, that helps with the expansion due to weather. I bought 2- 1.3 gallon rotopax for my motorcycle, for a trip from southern Indiana, to Prudhoe Bay, Alaska. For sake of transparency, they only held fuel from Fairbanks to cold foot camp, and then from cold foot to Deadhorse and back. They saved my ass when fuel levels dropped. They allowed me peace of mind, to know that my bike was going to make it. Let's be honest though...90% of the guys you see with these on their jeeps or trucks, have just bought them for looks and not practicality. I have used mine on my bike in Yellowstone, Glacier National Park, death valley, the Canadian Ice Fields and the Dalton Highway in Alaska. They can be a life saver when needed!

literally like listening to me talk.... fuck this, fuck that and fuck these lmao.... You are my kind of people!!

Haha! I like your style. Don't hold back. Only thing is, that's a Fuelpax not a Rotopax. Probably the same thing made at the same Chinese factory however.

Thumbs down for unnecessarily foul mouth and the annoying title. Helpful info tho.

I just purchased some Roto packs and you’re correct when it gets hot they expand and then they contract and it makes it hard to turn the mechanism also I just purchased the locks and they don’t work I don’t understand how the lock system is supposed to lock these on it just locks one section to the other section but it still turns so what is the reason for the lock I just picked up the locks today and I’m returning them tomorrow the fuel cans and water can I like but the mounting system does suck!!!

I need fuel on my on/off road bike.was just about to order. No idea what to do now,crap

Agree! Cheap hardware. Great bumper.

The best way to use them is only carry fuel if you are planning a remote trip other than that keep them empty

You have the fuelpax not a rotopax those are cheaper and built as such.

Determined! D

That is a "Fuelpax", not a RotoPax®. It's a knockoff product. Different products.

You saved me having open wallet surgery. Appreciate your honesty. Be lucky mate. 🇬🇧

Hilarious!

Never seemed like a good idea to me. Never bought one. Seemed like a fashion accesory from the start.

That's nothing I had one to climb 6ft

👍

Thanks for the opinion, was about to buy these. If people don't like your language they can change the channel.

Sweet Jeep! I had an old 304 V8 CJ7 5speed. It is still one of my favorite vehicles ever.

Looks like it’s running good

Thanks so much for taking the time to post this video, you saved me from a horrible mistake. Per your recommendation, I bought the Jerry Cans from Wavian. Those are epic! They get cold, hot, rained on - sit in the sun and freeze. So far, they have worked great over the last 6 months. Thanks again!

That pull looks really fun

Thanks for the heads up.

🥳👍👍

Hmmm... I have had my two one-gallon Roto Paxs for 5 years and they have served my well. Of course I do not ride in the sand. I carry them on the back of my Harley Davidson 2018 Fat Bob FXFBS. They come in handy on a long ride where gas stations are few and far in-between. Stop complaining and come up with a better alternative.

I have a beagle and he is always getting into trouble. That is why he is my little buddy.

The have fill lines for expansion you too smart guys! Maybe you guys should stay home it’s dangerous out there

Too dumb to read the instructions!!! Say to oil lock after mud and sand runs!

Shake down time

Looks like that fixed the axle wrap.

get a Steer-Smarts...better design ✌

I literally stopped my purchase because of this video. Why? Because it actually makes sense lol. Damn I wanted to get a few for my jeep and trailer. But guess not anymore. :/

Ceagle blimbing

You got that right, they are garbage but so are all other plastic gas cans, since government thought it was safer to remove the vent relief valve. my five gallon cans do that vacuum crushing look and I have to use an air compressor to pop them back out

Its aluminum won't work. Need a sealed bearing. Go with street smart brand obracket.

What a whiney little dick bitch. Grow a pair

any covers on the fog light side?
