Texas was a niche market for the LP tractors and some other equipment- guess why? Oil fields and refinery area would have plenty of the CNG/LP fuel available with minimal transport cost at short distance, fuel would be a lot cheaper than the gasoline and diesel fuel that could be transported further with less expensive equipment, but the cheap fuel would be in the limited area-SO, any gasoline or diesel equipment that could be set up for the cheaper fuel would sell well in that area. There a lot of red LP super Ms in Texas? Also probably the green thingies missing half their cylinders, the orange and yellow tractors using LP. Louisiana is another area for the LP, again because of the very cheap fuel in the area. The fuel may be 85% or less energy of gasoline or diesel- but it would be at 15% or so cost of the liquid fuels after the specialty equipment was installed at vendor and user end. If no market for the LP, then common practice was to 'flare' the gaseous fuel in the air, total loss of the energy that might be used to turn a crankshaft. RN

Amana Colonies served as a respite where we ate a family style lunch that sustained us with more food than could reasonably fit into our ample physiques. The show at Ankeny
