Does anybody have any feedback regarding Wedco Jerry Cans and/or their HD Can Holder? Amazon says, Made in North America...in other words Canada (LOL)...still better than China.

I just wanted to get some feedback before I pull the trigger on a couple of these for the truck and trailer.

Screw that, it has one of those epa caps.

You'll end up spilling more gas on the side of your truck then you will get into the tank

Ehhh.. I spent a couple hours looking a few months back, there are a few still made, your best bet is to buy a nozzle made for a water (blue) jerry can, they definately still have the old top.

I'm sure you could also find some PVC pieces at lowes, do some magic and have one (then paint) Or find a metal nut (Biggun) and weld a spout to it and put a rubber seal in it (Of course these methods are extremely unlikely and pretty crazy) :notallthere:

But yea water jerry cans are a good bet, Just buy a replacement top for one and then buy the one you got listed

and you can seriously weld up one of those holders for about $5

For S**ts and giggles I'm taking a welding class and we get to make anything we want and keep it, (I mean I've gotten hundreds possible thousands worth of metal that I've made they just let you keep) Just an idear

It's funny that you mention that...I just bought a flux welder and decided to teach myself; but then quickly decided that I would benefit from 'professional' training. LOL.
