Well, this one has a gadget inside the can that doesn't allow me to do that and it is virtually impossible to hold, pour, and pull on the friggin trigger. I hope that TRUMP reverses the POS EPA ruling on this.
    The dude’s had 4 years to do something about it. You’ll probably be waiting a long time if you expect him to take some action. He’s probably never used a gas can in his whole life. I think he mostly only concerns himself with things that affect him. If you’ll remember he tried to reverse the incandescent light ban because he thinks his skin doesn’t look good under the new bulbs and he tried to get rid of low flow toilets and faucets because it took him 5 flushes to get a **** to go down. But anyway I agree with you on the gas cans. Stupidest law ever.

            Brent, my VP's have a molded in handle ( big indention) in the bottom for a handle... check yours.

              I have several of these. They fit in the bed of the truck even with the bakflip closed. VP doesn’t.

                Indention..... I’m talking an actual handle you can grip!

                  You can also make your own spouts. Home depot has the threaded nipple and hose in plumbing.

                      I just siphon from some poor stranger’s truck directly to mine. Forget the can. ��

                        Another vote for Atwood. Recently bought a VP with some stupid vent hose in it, it is terrible.

                          Dam, don't tell me that. I just ordered a VP.

                            Hopefully yours is the original design. Mine doesn’t have a vent, but rather a little tube/hose that runs from the end of the spout to the bottom of the can. It still create a suction and you have to tip and gas can back and forth to let it ‘breathe’.

                              I usually aquire my gas cans doing my adopt-a-highway cleanups. I'm up to 12 now. I just can't justify spending that kind of $$$ on a VP

                                I have a VP but picked up 3 of the Atwood’s jugs last Friday. I’m not worried about the bottom handle. Anything is better than the EPA gas cans.
