a lot of money for 4 gal of gas

Yeah. Also looking at the 2 1 gallon cans for $99 and the single 3 gallon can for $86. These are supposed to be toughest cans on market. Not blown plastic blitz can with leaky lid.
If I had a pickup bed I'd care less but since I have a car and suv, leaking gas in passenger compartment is my concern.

Well for now I went with a 5 gallon walmart jug to get some gasoline storage on hand that I won't dip into for my mowers. I thought I'd save money but honestly its almost as expensive to buy walmart junk.
I got a 5 gallon can $16 and a transport/drip tray $10 and 2 bungee cords $3 and a bottle of stabil $5. Ended up spending $35 before fuel. So if I do that for 20 gallons including fuel costs that is $205 just to safely store fuel.

Space saver fuel jugs, The Best and pretty fair priced.

Those space savers look pretty decent. The only cons on those are how tall they are. I'd like low hard to tip over jugs. Also the air bleeder on the handle looks iffy. The only ones I've seen that I'd carry comfortably in a passenger compartment are the military plastic cans and the rotopax.

I have seen mentioned using metal paint thinner cans for long term storage. (Not vehicle use)
