5 gallon cans are a pain in the a..s and wallet. A 55 drum is cheap and easy to move if you have a FEL. The drum makes it cost effective against the road taxes.

I love NC .. There are 3 places that sell off-road within 3 miles of home.

our local jobber sells 55g drums of red for the price of clear... we have to buy 1000g bulk to get any discount.

I go directly to the oil company on buy offroad. At times it is $.20 cheaper than the 2 gas stations that sell it.

About ten years ago, went to Daytona Beach to pick up a trailer in January. They had a freaking snow storm! The restaurant didn't have any heat at all. Wait staff wore sweaters and complained about the cold. We ate dinner with our coats on, Hot Coffee was free!

around here I'd have to drive the next city iup to get red diesel at the discount. I can buy locally by the drum.. for clear prices.

either way.. for burning 5g at a time.. it's not worth it to drive to another city to save the road tax on 5g for me anyway.

Its the same bullsh*t around here. I end up getting it delivered. I'm burning massive amounts of fuel to get these hayfields fertilized.
I cant see why us farmers cant burn red in our trucks, too. I'm towing wagons all over the roads at $4/gallon.

If the EPA has it's way, those limp-noodle tree-huggers will have us all walking or riding bicycles before long.

I tell you what.

Lately.. I've been using my old gas tractors more and more. for those I can actually get a refund ont he road tax.. there is aftually a line item / form to fill out for rebate of gas road tax for gasoline used on a farm.

most of my tractors are old.. I have way more gassers than diesels.. and have been running those more.

the gasswrs under 50hp aren't too bad on economy. over 50 and they sux :)
