On our last long trip to Alaska I carried it behind the tanks like Bob above. On trips mostly in the lower 48 USA I either leave it in the storage unit at home or get my son to put it in the back of my truck. Short trips it mostly stays at home now.

Right now it is behind the tanks, locked with a cable, and I cannot find the key. Fat lot of good it would have been on the trip if I had needed it.

OEM carrier on my 2014 23D modification to prevent flat tire and time from falling out. But also good pics of the carrier out from under the unit.
