    Think i will just continue to take mine to Mikes service center. Sit out front and enjoy a nice cold Mt Dew while he does it. Takes about 15 minutes and he lubes everything.

    I totally agree. Without good skids, there's always a chance of a rock taking it out.

    I just bought the short one they have. If I knock it off I have bigger problems than the valve.

    Mostly electrical shit that nobody cares about.
    Oh look, another Fumoto thread where the only reason against it is no skid or a fragile masculinity.

    had mine for almost 8 years no issues. I did get the one with a longer nipple as its easier to attach a hose and make draining super easy. I do have a skid and it would take a very strategic and 1/1000000 chance that some random rock or whatever would make it through the hole to hit it hard enough to cause an issue. I had one on my previous audi wagon and that was loooooowwww with out any issues.

    Of course I own a coffee maker, but it makes poor quality coffee. I also have an espresso machine, too much work when you're groggy.

    I went back to a simple pour-over filter. Boil water, pour over coffee. Much better coffee, slightly more work.

    I got some cheap Amazon one mainly for steel filter. The carafe wasn't so good, but I made a support for an Ikea teapot that I have. It ain't pretty but works great.

    For camping, I rough it with Starbuck Vias. Not the best cup of coffee, but it gets me going.

    None, yet.
    I'm about to put skids on and am looking at these Fumoto's. Would you recommend the standard, short, or long nipple? I suppose one w/a nipple and possible use of a hose might make sense, so maybe not the standard. TIA!

    I have one on my Subaru for the last 10 years. Lower ground clearance never had any issues with it.
