I filled up two 5-gallon cans with gas, to prepare for the leaf chopping, blowing, and mulching season, and it cost me $35.00 (two weeks ago) when it cost about $21.00, this time last year.
It's already time to make my third and hopefully, but (doubtfully), final pass on the leaves this fall, and it's already time to go get more gas.

IT WOULD APPEAR: Gas burns faster in the truck, boat, gas-powered yard tools, or anything else when gas prices get higher.
Does anyone have any logical theory as to why that might be???
