    I'm looking at these, but the reviews are either great, or terrible.

    Whatever this is.


    And I think I'll probably pick up your cans. Give a day or two here. I assume you'll be around this week?

    I bought some Eagle 5-gal gas cans a while back on amazon. I definitely like them over anything I could get locally. The lack of a crappy pour spout and the added funnel are very useful for both cars and yard equipment.

    Do you have one of those weird flex fuel flippy doodads on your vehicle, is that why you dont like the spout? Pretty sure they need an adapter, our ford did.

    I use it for my lawnmower and my 1999 Amigo, so pretty sure not. I'd like just a hose and a funnel. I think I have some other cans I can steal a decent spout from.

    Look at the reviews though. They will most likely arrive dented like crazy. I bought 2, amazon replaced my dented one and told me to dispose of or keep it because shipping it back would be too expensive. Use that information as you will.

    And now that I'm an old man and can't lift more than 10-lbs, I also bought a GasTapper Gravity fuel siphon. Used it once after our last power outage and it worked pretty well, pretty dang slow though but I think all siphons are.
