Is it legal to go down to the USA to fill my truck up with gas, as well as bring a few jerry cans of gas back with me?

I don't see why not, as long as you declare it all on the way back up. The only problem I could see is if the full jerry cans are considered "dangerous goods," in which case you might need to get a permit ahead of time. I would really check with the Canadian Border Services Agency before you go down.
Of course its legal, my brother does it all the time.
Spends 45 minutes driving to the border, 30 minutes waiting to cross, 30 minutes waiting coming back, then 45 minutes home. Saves himself $10-$15 he loves it
The jerry cans I can't see being allowed, maybe 1 or 2, but certainly not loading the pickup truck full of them

I have no clue, but I would think there is a limit... Normally to bring anything back into Canada from abroad you have to be gone for at least 24 hours .... for $50..... 48 hours for $400

haviing said that there is no issue with your gas tank however big it may be, but to have many cans.... I think your pushing it.... call customs and ask before you try..... 1 800 461-9999
