Great question, and we've got a video that answers it with step-by-step instructions at the bottom of this blog. I learned how to do this just for this post. And, let me further assure you that the extent of my truck-bed know how opens out about as far as the tailgate on a truck-bed... which means: not far. So, if you're thinking, "I can't do this," don't be so quick to judge. Check out the selection of Better Built truck boxes we have online here. I was able to open the Better Built Truck Bed box, read the directions and install in under 45 minutes. Someone with the automotive (or even basic hand tool knowledge which I also lack) could probably get this truck box install done in 10 minutes. Why would you need a truck box? The reasons are numerous, but we can start here: a safe, accessible spot to lock your everyday tools, gear and ot... Read more

This No Spill gas can is the ticket to spill-less dispensation of gas. You can use it on any size tank, whether you can see a fill-line or not (we discovered this neat little trick while logging in Monarch, Montana link to Gone Loggin' blog). Without further ado: Welcome to our own rendition of the 1980's favorite, "No Spill Jill, the Demo." Here is how it works: when you depress the fill button (it's literally a button, no more inserting Crazy Straws and securing threads and getting gas all over your hands circa 1990) you just tip and press. Tip. And. Press. When the gas in the tank reaches the nozzle, it trips the built-in vent and the little white button you see there will pop up and hit your finger.

The Jaylow Yakima Kayak Rack is an automotive accessory you can use to haul your kayaks. It might seem intimidating to install some type of "rack" onto your car, but this Jaylow Yakima Kayak Rack is as easy as ordering pizza. Well almost. To demo this one, Jake and I went out with Denise (who agreed to demo this product as she owns it and uses it whenever she goes out around GF). In the pictures you will notice she's the one who did all the heavy lifting this go-round. She started kayaking recently and almost has me talked into taking the plunge (pun absolutely intended). This rack is ultra-reliable, heavy-duty and really easy to install. You can move it around your car's roof rack which means you can center it and take one kayak, or pair it up and take two. It comes with everything you need to secure your rig including bow and stern ti... Read more
