Car Forum / Mercedes-Benz Cars / January 2006Check Out GasCapCaddy.com
I don't like the gas cap hanging down and putting scratches/scuffs in my paint. I thought about removing the leesh, but I don't want to lose my gas cap. So, I came up with this idea, received patent/trademark pending protection and manufactured several thousand. I call my invention The GasCap Caddy. http://GasCapCaddy.com Check it out. Take care. good luck with your patent, MB's GM etc have been using this idea for years. cheers >I don't like the gas cap hanging down and putting scratches/scuffs in >my paint.

Some have a leash and some have nothing at all - even within a particular manufacturer it can vary between makes/models. Thankfully, not all cars come with a caddy device, in fact most don't. And, when they do, it's not an accessory device, which is what we're marketing. The beauty also being that whether you have a leesh or not (no caddy or clip) The GasCap Caddy can work for you. Take care, have a great new year. That's cool, however all my MB's I ever owned have this feature already built in the tank fill door.

This OP appeared on the Chrysler NG. Yes, all Mercs have a caddy and I thought that most cars did. Maybe it is not so widespread among 'American' cars. I am surprised that the promoter thinks there is a need sufficiently great that it is commercially viable.

I own three MBs and have no need for the GasCap Caddy on anyone of them. Model T Fords did not have the gas cap caddy. Their owners could be prospective buyers for the device. HHC That's the entire point, to gain feedback from other automobile owners about the likely hood to use/effectiveness The GasCap Caddy may provide. I simply do not have the resources to test/gain feedback for all make/model vehicles and Newsgroups provide an effective avenue, for information gathering. Thanks to everyone for the feedback, positive and negative. > This OP appeared on the Chrysler NG. > [quoted text clipped - 21 lines] > > > > Check it out. Take care. Have an old '73 450SL ( European model) & it has no leash or anything else for that matter. I simply put it on top of the fender, fill up, (forever it seems), reattach the gas cap, close the lid & away I go! No problems. Only real problem these days is cost of filling up! Really? Got legs? Got a few bucks in your pocket? Try taking a trip to your nearest big town and visiting a few showrooms. Or are you going to chase the market in 20-year-old cars? That advice will cost you 100 dollars...

[...] Thanks for the feedback, DAS. Please, keep it coming. You may just say something valuable, though I am sure it will not be anything other than hypercritical. Obviously, I have already used the research methods you so smartly suggest. Hence the desire to branch out, beyond what I can get to with my legs. Think of how many cars are on the road and, of those cars, what percentage do you think actually have a similar device installed? Can you really think that 20 year old cars represent the only market? My friends *new* vehicles and findings from walking the *new* and used car lots tell me otherwise (VW's, Honda, Scions, PT Cruisers, GMC Denali's, Yukon's, Hummers and more representing virtually very other manufacturer.) Thanks anyway. Regards > Really? Got legs? Got a few bucks in your pocket? > [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > information gathering. > [...] |
