2 cycle mix will eventually dissolve the milk jug. Use a container
specified for gasoline.

Everybody says this, but that jug has been in there for 3 years and is
still intact. Perhaps the plastic jugs I get are different than others.
Mine say HDPE ( high density polyethelene) which is the same material that
is used for automobile gas tanks..

How friggin' cheap are you??? Regardless of what material it's made of, it's
WAY too thin for storing gasoline. One poke with a pitch fork and your life
may become suddenly more interesting. Go buy a nice red gasoline container.
If you don't agree, stop by your local fire department with your milk jug
full of gasoline and ask them what they think. Hopefully, they'll tie you to
the top of a fire truck ladder, extend it, and dangle you in the wind until
you come to your senses.
