I've been filling my 1000 gallon offroad tank like playing the stock market, 250 gallons at a time letting it get almost empty. Will finally fill it when it seems the price has bottomed out, who knows when???
Offroad was $1.79 last week here.

why dosen't everyone start runnin grease and stop paying such high fuel prices? It is very easy to set up and takes about a day. why pay the high fuel prices when you can run grease for free?

it is clean enough that you could breath the air coming out of the pipe, with out having any problems. My buddy has it in his 91 jetta and when it switches over the chatter is not as loud. he aslo says it gives him more power. Once my turck is on the road it is the first thing I am going to do.
