I’ve had my Stanley about 20 years. I bought it when I got out of basic training in the Navy. It’s been dropped from a Helicopter from 20 feet on to a ship and survived. A little scratched and dented but in great working order. I’ve run it over with a tractor and trailer more than once; my wife will tell you at least once a week. I have a problem with sitting it on the tire as I do my safety checks and I back over it. It had major dents, and scratches throughout the body and I’ve had to replace the cup and cap a few (100) times. I wish my coffee cups would last as well as my Stanley. Well after surviving 20 years of abuse it took falling off a John Deer Tracker with a mower attachment to finish it off. The coffee inside was still hot 2 hours after I ran it over; just the charcoal pouring out. I hope this new one is as good as my first.
