I believe that one is the Bestop Modular Rack System.

Sorry, no pictures of it but I did get some of the hard top with some acrylic panels installed on the same Jeep.

Is it just me or did most companies just say "Let's see if we can make the ugliest JK".

:elkgrin: I do find the amount of aftermarket support for the Jeep platform to be amazing in size. Wonder how many modified Jeeps were at the show and I wonder if any other truck/car was as well represented?

Except that the cans are 2.5 gallons, not 1 gallon: http://daystarweb.com/productdetail.php?productID=1221. That would be 2.5 NATO cans if you mounted 5 of them.http://daystarweb.com/productdetail.php?productID=1221

So, this begs the question of how would you mount 5 of them, how long are they going to be if you mount 5 of them and is the $100+ a piece vs. $40 a piece worth it? Im thinking not really. The bike market, maybe but there are already spare tanks for that. I dont see the point to these little things.

The whole thing was a Mopar show it seemed and there looked to be a lot of the same thing with different paint jobs. Kind of disappointing really.

one on each wheel (x5) equals 1 Nato can...

The first post I've quoted here is the one I was responding to. It would appear Flagster envisioned attaching one to each tire (spare+four tires on the ground). I was only correcting his math, because he was wrong on the capacity of the cans.

More about this one, photographed by GTABurnout:

It appeared in the Optima Battery booth. It's a rock crawler with a rear mounted Chevy V8. The V8 powers a hydraulic pump that drives each wheel independently. The amount of power to each wheel is controlled by the driver. Independent suspension all around, extra long wheel travel, steering front and rear, immaculate welding: This is a truly unique vehicle. I can't find any information about who the builder is.
