true, last summer I could shop around and uy LP for about $1 a gallon when diesel was about $1.30. it equalled out as the LP used about a third as much fuel but if I was away from home and needed fuel I can run down to the gas station and get diesel. Plus the only company I could get LP from that cheap was not the most reliable one to bring it out when I needed it. Of course if I have a 500-1000 gallon tank they might be a little better but i guess for less than a 100 gallons it didn't make sense to drive out. If I lived where it was really cold for a good part of the winter I think I would definatly have a LP ractor if I used it then. We have the 1800 and a JD 720 LP and they never balk at starting when it is cold. Of course here in West Tn. really cold is like average of 20F for maybe a week at a time. Haha if the price of diesel keeps going up and LP stays down some w might have to look at buying that 4020LP dad has been looking at and just getting a bigger nurse tank this year while cutting hay! LOL!!!!
