Non sequitur. Where did I say I was a victim of anything?

That doesn't make any sense. *At least one time you drove your car/s:

No room in the trunk/s...?

Didn't really want to carry gas cans in the same trunk with suitcases,
coats, etc. - you know, the stuff you need immediately when you get to
your destination. Plus a new gas can is what, $5? Makes far more
sense to buy a new gas can at destination and not risk hundreds or
thousands of dollars worth of clothes and other essentials.


I bought an old surplus jerry can while I still could; I hope that I
don't end up having to leave that behind.

That doesn't make any sense, either. *Jerry cans aren't scarce...

Oh, wait... *you must mean back when you could afford one...

I meant back before they became hard to get due to the new laws about
gas can venting, just like I said.
