Not as inconvenient as one might think...

Seems like a pain to carry around that smelly gasoline funnel, however. I think I would rather just adjust to the conditions at hand.
The McCuff is made out of a hard rubber that doesn't seem to absorb fuel odor nor does it actually come in contact with fuel when used properly. Comes in a small black ballistic nylon bag and doesn't take more space than a baseball.
It slides onto the nozzle and raises the nozzle and pressure sensor high enough to allow a smooth, complete fill. One benefit was more predictability to the fuel range as the tank always seemed to fill to roughly the same level. (Of course, other factors also affect mileage.)
Hey, I'm not pushing it, just relaying my experience.
