Who else thinks these Direct Vent, Push This, Hold That, Gas Cans are a Pain? Last summer my "old school cans" where stolen. You know, the nice kind. The ones with the screen built into the nozzle, Real Vent, and easy to use. Now all that I can find are those stupid, drippy, twist this, hold that, pain in the butt kinds.

You're talking about the crappy red plastic gas cans as opposed to the awesome vented aluminum one, right? Flea markets and yard sales. |

haha speaking of nation of dumbasses, you should look at military weapons....They make those idiot proof like the claymore mine and rpg. On one side it says something along the lines of "This end towards enemy". If you point that the wrong way then you are way past being called a dumbass.....dumbass. haha sounds like red foreman |

careful a lot of the older cans will NOT last with ethanol. it reacts in the metal cans which is why most of them are plastic now and why any that are metal have a plastic "lining" inside them. also with a little brute force you can rip off that damned mechanism on the cans and make them nice simple "pour" cans. |

Yeah, it was bad enough when they first removed the vents & now you gotta hold down the lever after sliding the release, while spilling it all over the place. What a crock. |
