There is a loss of about 10/20 percent in power and fuel milage. Not to mention propane sucks in the cold weather. Some winter days I have my propane torch gelling up and not working.

$1.03/L here in Brandon. Makes me glad the engine is out of my 94 right now. Runnin around in my old man's 86 Ranger turbo diesel. That helps. Diesel is even 92.9 though.

That must be great mileage in a Ranger diesel. Diesel is about 88.9 here, bound to go up even more.

It's not bad, 35-40, but you can't get it too much of a hurry, thats all. I'll try to find some pics for you guys, it's a neat lookin truck. Needed box sides a few years ago, so the old man looked into it and found that dually fenders cost the same, so he dualled it!

That $2.99 is for an American gallon. It is $1.10 a liter in Moose Jaw.
There are close to 4 liters in an American gallon.
That computes to $3.70 for an American gallon.

I don't know if that Ranger will help much with only 25 mpg highway and 17 mpg city.
