I got a triaxle load of nut last year, the best coal I have burned by far. Most consistent in size also. :)

Got 10 ton from Lehigh last Oct.
Had absolutely no problems all year, and still going.
Rice was evenly sized and burned with no issues.
Love it

That works out to $160 a ton, same price as if you drove all the way to Lehigh and hauled it back yourself, paying for the fuel and your time. Nice!

Five years? How many ton did you get?
