Colt Case Ingersoll Garden Tractors

In my wallet yesterday.

I try to keep about 20 gallons of no-ethanol gas on hand, to run yard equipment, and to power the generator in case of emergencies. But I'm sometimes a bit lax, and don't keep things topped up like I should.

So yesterday I filled up the push mower and finished off a 5 gallon can. When I put it away, I shook the can next to it, thinking I was down to my last 5 gallons. Nope. I was down to zero gallons. 5 gas cans, all empty. Ugh.

So off to the station I went. I pumped 19 gallons of no-ethanol gas, for the meager little sum of $75.98.

I know, I know. Stop whining. But YIKES.

Bob, maybe I tell you how much that would cost here so you feel better?

19 gallons of premium gas right now would cost in our area about 91.70 USD

Yes, I have to remember you're way up in the frozen north, eh? Northwest Territory and all that, you betcha!

I guess you can console yourself with the beauty you get from the 4 full seasons. Just think of all the beautiful glistening white stuff you'll have all around you!

All we'll have is about 37 degrees and cold rain and drizzle.

Thanks for commiserating!

As I stand here filling the truck, I thought I'd let you know I would have paid $69.92 for it here. I find it interesting how the same thing varies. Three hours north last weekend it was $4.05/gal.

@Eugen that was whole bunch of math, but worth it.
