RotopaX Tank Holder

I just completed an overland trip with this Rotopax mount. It was a trip that consisted of eight hours driving on the highway and approximately 100 miles of off road driving most of which were on medium and difficult rated trails in the Colorado backcountry. This mount didn’t budge a millimeter over 4 days. I’ll update the performance in the Colorado winter but as of now these work perfectly and period. If you’re looking for an easy on easy off mounting solution then this is it, my hard top would have rattled off and these cups would have remained attached.

I needed to carry an extra 3 gallons of "emergency" gasoline on my trip up to the Arctic Circle in Canada and then through Alaska -- an 11,000+ mile road trip that included hundreds of miles over some pretty rough and bumpy dirt roads. My RotopaX Tank Holder didn't budge. A few pumps every few days and my gas remained secured to the back of my Class B+ RV. The product is not inexpensive, but it works as advertised -- a rarity these days among the hoardes of BS vendors out there. I'm easy to tick off, and very hard to impress. This product flat out works. If you have the need, buy it.

I was EXTREMELY skeptical about this product. So much so that I put off buying one for nearly a year because I didn’t think suction cups would be effective or safe. Boy was I wrong! With a big trip coming up where fuel was going to be a concern, I bit the bullet and bought the mount and a 3 gal rotopax. I gave my rig a proper bath and found a small section of panel on the tailgate where it would fit. Install was simple though finding the right place to mount took some time. After 2 days of testing around town, it was time to hit the road. From Dallas, TX I drove 6 hours to Merus Adventure Park outside Amarillo and drove Offroad for two days. And we’re talking proper offroading with moderate level trails, washes, steep hills, off camber, and corrugations. Then I went west to White Sands National Park in New Mexico, followed by an entire day exploring the Lincoln National Forest east of Alamogordo. Then I was off to explore the Guadalupe Mountains near Carlsbad. Finally it was back to Dallas. My rig got pushed hard for 5 days, Offroad and fast highway speeds. Rain, sun, dust, high winds… I cannot recommend highly enough. I’m likely going to get a second mount.
