Looking for some quality Jerry Can for TRR. A lot that I've been finding, the reviews say they leak. I definitely don't want that.

Thoughts on these NATO cans?

I found it was $20 cheaper to buy two cans without the pour spout and just buy one spout separately.

I also found this, what do you think?

Those are junk. The spout is tiny and they leak when you pour. Spend the money and get some scepter mfc's if you can. They're illegal though.



I wish I was driving right now.

I wasn't going to pour out of them, hence why I was getting the pump. You got a link for the 5 gallon scepter that you can provide?

The Scepters are definitely the way to go, if you can find them. My understanding was that they are no longer available new in the US, but you can own them and buy / sell them used (note: might be different in Kalifornia).

Unless you know of a group buy going on from someone who bought a lot of used ones, eBay is your best bet.

I'm going to buy mine through dstactical in Vancouver. If you're into road tripping go to canada.

Maybe I should ask this, What 5 gallon container can I buy NEW today that does not leak when going off road? On the pour spout, I realize that is where most of the leak occurs, hence why I was thinking of going the siphon pump instead. Also isn't there an issue with some of these due to our capless fuel filler?

I use these.

These are NATO cans.

I wait until they're 39.95. Shipping is $10 I believe.
