... and another thing-Swing out bumpers to carry fuel canisters... $1600 + to carry 8 gallons of fuel that you have to manually dump in filler neck.

Aux tanks are around $1800 and carry typically 20 gallons, lower center of gravity, shift weight to the rear and require no manual operation.
yes but can those fit in the new broncos?

I was looking at this because my range in my 2 door is going to be under like 300 which sucks

Shovel - now that is useful.

LIGHT BARS!!!!!

Most Broncos and Jeeps will never see a dirt road, much less be off pave in the dead of night travelling at speeds that require a 100,000,000,000,000,000 candlepower light bar across the top of their windshield.

Lockers > light bars

Exactly this…where else would you put your beer on while you asses damage?
I don't think this means what you think it means. I reread it several times before I realized the intended use 😂

I had to look up what a Rotopax is. I wasn't even sure what was circled on the photo.. Those things are tiny. What do they hold, a few gallons? Seems like a good mounting system at least.

I see them occasionally on 4x4 vehicles here in Phoenix and never knew the name. I'm old school Army type.. if it doesnt go in a 5 gallon jerry can I dont need it.
I love my Jerry cans, but after using rotopax, they are great! Comes in different sizes and multiple mounting options…

I actually built a swing out tire carrier on my Ranger. It sits in the garage 90 percent of the time because is just sucks to have it on a daily driver/part time work truck. It only goes on when I'm headed out camping/hunting/long road trips.

I'm actually going to add a roof top basket... but it will be removable. Because it just doesn't make sense to leave it on full time. Seems many people do though.

Some of us like those things because we carry a shit ton of water with us.😍😍
