How many gallons of 50:1 mix do you use each year? I’m out of mix, and I’m curious how much other folks go through.
I got some interesting history on this tree from a neighbor. Apparently this is just half of what used to be a big V-shaped tree. The other half...

Every state has a department of weights and measures. You could give them a call. If any one of those bundles doesn't measure out to .75 cu ft,...
