    Well I have a Stanley that I never use. I like the Contigo thermos from Walmart. They keep coffee hot for around 4 hours and are much easier to drink from. IMG_1922.jpeg This one has gone many miles with me. I have another one that is much newer. This one is of course my favorite.

    Used a Stanley for years, they are awesome. Have several YETIs currently, really like them. Have never paid for a yeti myself, all of mine came from customers or vendors. However, the Ozark Trail brand from Walmart is much cheaper, and I have a 1 gallon thermos in that brand and it keeps drink ice cold for hours.

    Stanley. Had 1 roll out of a truck door going around a corner. Door wouldn't stay closed/log truck. Ran over it,was mty decked up. Smashed it but coffee was still hot when I got home hrs later. Still worked but only held a few cups.

    Nissan makes a good thermos. But you can get 2 Stanleys for the price of it. Just pre heat the thermos with hot coffee or hot water. It helps keep coffee hot.

    Thanks for the replies.

    This week was my first in the sleeper cab... by myself. Tried instant coffee in the microwave. Just not cutting. I wish I'd sprung for a RV/truck coffee maker instead of the microwave, newbie mistake I guess.

    I make a pot at home and fill an insulated double-wall coffee cup my SIL gave me (24 oz). Stays hot for hours. Last night I bunked at the Flying J. Got a cup of coffee first thing in the morning. Man, coffee never tasted so good!

    Think I may try to find a Stanely somewhere local before next week.
