lots of those here in the states...make a trip down here and we can hook you up...


ooops, after doing some research, Rubbermaid purchased Gott, and has ceased making these...safety issues...

Thistle - if my neighbours are heading south for shopping I can have them try and grab you one.

Otherwise - mail order. Fuel too expensive to road trip for a jerry can.

I have been to Kalispell many times and have always kept my eyes peeled....never seen one....I got these down there prolly in the mid 90's. Anybody got a couple sittin in there shed they would sell me?

 

[rmk8hundo]

i have been looking for them for the last few year and have NOT found them yet I'm down to my last one and had to piece it together. the best and strongest can out IMO

 

[MTdream]

thistle, will do some looking around today at lunch, but pretty sure rubbermaid has quit making that shape...

but if I find some, will buy them and have some friends heading back up to Whitecourt in the next couple days, they can shipt them to you, or if you come down this way, can just hold on to them for you...

I have one like that, but I have not seen them around in the last year or so.
Have you looked at the OEM Polaris gas can. There also good a good shape.

That would be great....your in Kalispell right?? My dad lives by Costco in country estates and hes up every few weeks.....I'd like 2 new ones or even 4 if you can find em.....thanks guys Brendon

I called that polaris dealership....outta stock and discontinued....so if anyone sees a couple sittin at a polaris dealership snag em for me and I'll buy em. THey are the perfect size and shape for the back of a sled.....but we all might be outta luck.

Try calling Bristows or Mies Outdoor in MN. They might have some old stock.

Rubbermaid/Gott gas cans are no longer manufactured.
It appears that the Coleman Corp. was sued because of a fire related incident where an individual was burnt by pouring gas on a fire from the can.(on video)

The jury sided with the idiot.

Rubbermaid/Gott quit producing their cans shortly afterwards...
(about a year ago)

I tried to see if they had any on hand, but they are all depleted. You can get replacement parts but no can..

Some not too intelligent people out there and some damn greedy lawyers...

See now one idiot and the whole batch is spoiled.
