I have a standard 5 gallon jug with my pump attached, but would like to have a spare jug that I can mix ahead of time so I'm not waiting til I use the last bit to head to the pump and refiil. I like the racing fuel jugs that are pretty popular and in plentiful supply from Jegs/Summit or local racing shops, but they're too tall to fit in the bed of my truck under the tailgate cover. Are there any 5 gallon jugs that are shorter AND have a wide mouth to be able to fuel directly from a Jet-A pump nozzle? Figured this group would be able to point to one pretty quickly if such a thing exists.

I have two of the 2nd type with the older, non-safety caps on them and they fit in my pickup under the tonneau cover...

That's the type of jug I have now, but the issue is filling from a Jet-A nozzle requires a funnel because of the wide nozzle at the Jet-A pumps. Which if I have to continue with the funnel that is fine, was just looking to see if there was another option.

Comparing to something like this, that when the cap is unscrewed the Jet-A nozzle fits in without the need for a funnel:

But, it's too tall to fit under the tonneau cover.

There's something similar at C A L Ranch Stores around here, I cannot find it on their website for a picture but it has a similar type/size screw on cap which is located in the center of the jug. The jug is that off white nylon and the cap has a screw in plug which I use to place an available tubing piece. That's how I fill the Jersey Modeler fuel can. It fits in the bed of my Chevy pickup with the top being below the bed edges. C A L Ranch justs buy there stuff from other suppliers so I'd think it could be found elsewhere as well?

Looks like I fibbed about the height of the bottle. I got some Kero today and here's a pic of one of the jugs in my pickup bed. The black covers on the rails are factory stuff on 1 Ton pickups. The bottle looks to be about that height, maybe a quarter of an inch taller, however it's above the front bed cross piece. Don't know how that might work on the OP's bed cover.

Well I'll be d*mned if I can figure out how to rotate the stupid picture. I change it on my computer and it still uploads sideways, who knows???? lol

Thanks guys. Some promising ideas here. Need to go ahead and measure mine so I know what my max height is for comparing.
