Wow! That's a fair deal. Here in
New England only Corp Bros. HQs in Providence has
price like that - $40 for 27lbs cylinder and $50 for 36lbs. Everyone else here adds between $25 and $30 per cylinder due allegedly to extra transportation costs but IMO just 'cause they can.
BTW I posted this caution in some earlier thread. I usually get my CNG tank replaced at the
chandlery nearest to my
mooring field and often wondered as to different rates it would get to empty. Last time they ran out of cylinders and did not expect any until a few weeks later so I went to a boatyard a few miles away. The guy there as he was passing me the cylinder felt it was too light and offered to check the pressure. Sure enough it barely registered 1,500. The next few he tested hovered around 1,800 and 2,200 until he hit one which was 2,500, still not a full 2,800-3,000 but at this point I don't think he had any more cylinders to check so I took that one and he gave me a little discount.
