Description: Never touch your gas cap again! Simply fully insert the gas nozzle through the trap door in the InStant Fill™ Cap.

Stant's new InStant Fill™ fuel cap makes refueling easier. It’s easy to install and features a convenient trap door mechanism that accommodates the gas nozzle, eliminating the hassle of removing and replacing the cap when refueling. It also meets onboard diagnostic (OBDII) emission specifications.

InStant Fill™ caps are designed to appeal to the following consumers:

Elderly or arthritic customers: With no cap to twist, a source of discomfort is eliminated for those with arthritis in fingers, hands or wrists.
Clean-hands customers: There is no dirty, smelly gas cap to touch, so hands will not smell of gasoline after refueling.
Timesavers: Pushing the gas nozzle through the trap door is quicker than removing and replacing a standard cap.
Race fans: Fill up like NASCAR does during a pit stop.
Customers that have experienced a lost cap: There is no chance to leave the cap on the gas pump and drive away, if you do not need to remove it to refuel.
Environmentally conscious customers: Since the cap is never removed during the refueling process, fewer gasoline fumes will evaporate into the atmosphere.

Pros: Makes fill-up easier, easier if you have big hands, no gas cap scratching the side of your truck
Cons:

Great product, does exactly what it says, easy install, more convenient than anything I guess.

Pros: easy to install, convenience
Cons:

There's probably a good reason these aren't sold in california. I can't say my review is helpful because of this. I bought one online from RockAuto and received it within the week. I installed it promptly and went to the closest shell station eager to try it out. My guess is pumps are designed different out here, which caused the flap hinge to break off. Simply put, it broke the first time i used it. Not sure where to point the finger.

Pros: Easy to fill up, you cant loose your gas cap.
Cons: water collects in fill area

I would not recommend this product to anyone who lives in a climate where it rains or snows or has puddles or if you wash you X at all. Problem is the hole where the little hinged door is located fills with water so when you go to fill your tank you get maybe a 1/4 cup of water in the tank with it.
