I think Gilbarco does most of the pumps here - all electronic.

That $40 is for a "face cord" of wood, not a full cord. A typical face
cord is only 1/3 of a full cord because the logs are only 16 inches
long. In a full cord, the logs are 48 inches long and in a stack 4 feet
high by 8 feet long.

Makes me happy I can go out and fell my own. Although after felling,
sawing, splitting, and hauling, 40$ is damn cheap for two days work.

Half gallon pricing was commonplace in Ohio when the price went over 99.9
cents per gallon.
