    If I could find a fuel container that didn't smell, I might carry it, as I have been known to run out of fuel.

    hmm true - I think I'm going to put that gas container in a thick black trash bag, that might do it.

    Nope. It would have to be a metal container that is capable of containing all the vapors.

    I still had plenty left on my 9.9 gallon fill. Doesn't the tank hold like 10.5 or something like that?

    Yep, but you're likely to be lectured about the risk of burning out a fuel pump, etc. :)
