Oh, and CA banned these cans too! Figures the state would continue to be an emberassment to the other 49.

Good luck with this one. See that vent on the back? It will purge fuel when you off road if perform any changes in elevation, such as heading up to the mountains to wheel. I can't stand the smell of gas all day...

I have both Specter Nato fuel cans and water cans. Bought the fuel cans off E-bay used for about 50$ apiece, you can buy the water cans new, about 40$ apiece. I've done a ton of white water rafting over the last 15 years and these are easily the most durable water jugs I've found, I expect no less from the fuel cans and have had no probs with them so far.
