It's a little more complicated than that but that plays a part. The Saudis started a price war by increasing production when an alliance between Russia and OPEC fell apart in early March. That's lead to a global surplus about the same time demand tanked.

I've never felt my rear dance, and I don't even have a spoiler (ok, I have one in a box somewhere).

Guess I need to get out more.

Designed for boats. Gravity feed, have to get it above the height of the filler.
Also heavy so filling while on its back in the back of a pickup is not recommended by law. Then getting out of the truck is not easy.

If your talking about my gas can, yes, you have to take it in and out of the truck. No problem for me and my son. And the handle is a pump. You can pump it up into anything. Takes about 10-15 minutes to pump 10 gallons. You hand does get a bit tired.

We took out 18 giant juniper trees and 6 Arborvitae along one fence just a few months ago. Come to think of it, there are probably more than 26. Believe me, they are there. I sure wish they didn't exist!

Ok, looked like the ones we use for ski boats. I built a winch lift for the back of the pickup, held two of these. Ours did not have a handle pump.
