    Coleman Camp Stove

    So there I am driving down the street on garbage day, When a beautiful green metal object catches my eye. I pull over to check on my find. I walked away with this Coleman 425e camp stove in near perfect condition with a full fuel tank...and it still works. Im as giddy as a school girl and cant wait to use it camping the first time.

    Damn right OP wins! Free beats $20 every day!

    I keep my eyes out for curbside grills, 60% of the time, the PROPANE TANK is still attached. Ill slam on the brakes for a propane tank!!!

    assuming it is out of date... what does it cost you to re-cert a tank down there???

    Trade them in on a new full bottle. Maybe 20 bucks.

    Great find on the stove. It looks great.

    I have two of these and you can't beat them. That looks beautiful, grab you a couple of gallons while you can. Also if you look on the bottom you'll find a two digit date stamp (month and year)

    Do you know how long the white gas is good for in storage? I already have a couple gallons for lanterns but its a few years old now.
