Fire Extinguishers?

[t_j]

I have a zip tie attached to one of my Halon bottles; should there be a fire in the cap I pull the pin and hold back the trigger with the zip tie and get out.
I also have two dry chemical extinguishers in the bed of the truck.

Thats a good option!! I would still rather have something I can be stuck in the cab with and use. Maybe I will but a second extinguisher under the front of the passenger seat that is CO2.

Hope you grab the right one in the time of need...

Anything I but in the cab will be safe for use while in it! Not putting halon on my truck at all that shit is dangerous, especially if someone that does not know what it is uses it while you are stuck.

Unless you're with @caverndiver and he has his SCUBA shit in the cab

This seems like a good idea for @Rookie!

Anyway back on topic.

Didn't you put the Halguard's in your seats?

Can someone post up a link of a good CO2 tank that they would recommend?

Badger or Kiddie are good brands.

Both, CO2 or Halon work the same: displacing oxygen, you just need more CO2 to have the same effect as Halon.
But CO2 can also cool a six-pack of beer very quickly

No, I attached the halguards to the front of my seats, but CO2's in the seats would be fantastic in the seats to cool them down during a hot day in the desert LOL (Dry ice)

Yeah, CO2 is not heavier than air though so you can recover by opening the window. Halon on the other hand will fill your lungs from the bottom up displacing the air and suffocating you.
