Bulk gasoline storage questions

The place for general talk about gun, shooting, loading, camping, survival, and preparedness related tools and gear, as well as gear technology discussion, gear reviews, and gear specific "range reports" (all other types of gear should be on the back porch).

Probably the best over-all solution. If you are handy with an oxy/acetylene torch and stick welder, a small used boat trailer can be converted into a decent utility trailer for not much money. A trailer with a 2000# GWR axle and 12" wheels can handle a tank up to about 200 gals.
I've built a couple of trailers like this before, and it can be done in a couple of days; even one day, if you really get after it and have a helper.
