Find a car that does better gas mileage. My DD is sized to the seat 5 Europeans and has a decent hatchback trunk. At highway speeds(70 mph in the UK) in the summer I average about 66 miles)/ US gallon. This would reduce your consumption to less than 20 percent of what it currently is and you could just do the 1200 miles with one refuelling stop.
Obviously no one should attempt to drive 600 miles without a break, so you could do the journey with 3 or 4 stops
I don't know about the US law, but here you can legally carry a maximum of 1 Jerrycan of spare fuel(20 litres)in your vehicle , and store same at your house. Fuel stations will refuse you permission to fill non-approved containers with fuel( they will turn off the pump ). If you persisted by going to another pump I hope they would call the cops. Must people here don't like over self-entitlement, otherwise known as greed.
