Camelbak 750ml bottle
I was at one of those outdoor stores and saw this nice looking Camelbak Bottle. The nice thing i though was the bite and sip top that you can flip away and doesn’t drip. The other nice thing about this bottle is that there is a straw attached to it so now you don’t have to flip the bottle if you want to drink. Just bite the top and start drinking.
There is one flaw in this bottle. It is not major but still a bit strange if you ask me. Ok you wonder what is it 
ok the Straw is to short and that means that about a 1/2 inch of your drink will stay in the bottle. I really wonder why they didn’t make the straw just a little bit longer.
The size of this bottle is nice BUT it will not fit in all cup holders in your car. It fits in the top part of our cars but if you want to make sure it fits maybe you should go with the smaller version of this bottle.
Camelbak made a great product for a good price and they even have spare parts in case you need them. The bottle is dishwasher save (didn’t try) and is leak proof.
A real nice bottle to add to your collection.
update:
As you may have heard by now most of those nice looking plastic water bottles are not very safe for you to use.
This Camel bottles we talked about is one of those. It is made from plastic nr 7 and that seems to be not that healthy.

George,
We’re so glad you like the bottle. Thanks for the complimentary post. After experimenting with various lengths of straw, our product design team made the straws short enough to allow for optimum suction. I have passed along your observation, though. The bottles come in a variety of sizes and colors and the smaller ones may work better for your cupholders. The Honda Pilot cupholder, for example, fits the .5L size like a glove. Again, thanks for the post. Feedback keeps us on our toes, and flattery will get you everywhere.
