Re: [HoE] Spook Juice Question

This is precisely the reason why gasoline is not transported in milk jugs.  When you're dealing with
liquid storage, you want to store it in the fewest containers as possible, to keep wasted space
down.
Now, I wouldn't recommend doing this, but...
It would be possible, with proper skills, to attach a scavenged 55-galllon drum to the back of a
dune buggy.  That would screw up the handling of the thing more than I want to imagine, and a drum
that big would also act as an expert bullet-catcher, should you ever be fired at (BTW, you munchkins
out there can stop calculating how much Armor rating a 55-gallon drum of gas would give you; it's a
baaad idea).
But, the idea is the same: you could attach a container to the buggy to hold the extra gas, if
you're willing to sacrifice a little handling ability.  Get Road Warriors, if you haven't already,
and get an idea from there how to add the tank.

In my group, we ruled that you could gain an extra 3 Load Points worth of space by taking up
passenger space.  This is for things like removing the seats from a minivan to add, say, a
ring-mounted Bushmaster on the inside.  If anyone has any other ideas on removing passenger space,
please let me know.
