I've been Prepping for decades. Someone stole my old vintage camping equipment. I've got newer camping equipment including two Mr. Heaters, two 100lb. Propane tanks and a few 20lb tanks. I have four Fire Rings on the farm, a well with a hand pump in it, Creek, three ponds nearby and a lake a few miles away. Keep Prepping my friends.
The beauty of these is that they’re also dual-fuel. So you can use Coleman fuel or gasoline, and you can also get propane adaptors for the stoves too, which makes them triple-fuel. The lanterns are nice in that they provide both heat and light.
You will want to cook inside if you have food and others don’t, so I go with propane. It also stores forever. Much less expensive than Coleman fuel, even if you have to buy a new tank. They say “buy once, cry once”. Fuel storage and cost is the driver here. Fun old stuff, however!
You can use gasoline for the stoves and lanterns. The best way is to get a dual fuel generator because gasoline causes the regular generator to burn through faster and leak. NEVER use gasoline in the heater I have seen that cause fire balls and explosions and my aunt burnt her house down that way so take that how you want. Coleman fuel and white gas are the same and basically they are just highly refined Kerosene.
White oak is my favorite for outdoor cooking. Built a cinder block smoker that will hold 15 Boston butts. I use a barrel with a slot cut out of the bottom to burn down wood into larger chunks of charcoal. Then I shovel it out of the burn barrel and into the smoker. Best bbq I've ever had.

Yes, I hope to stumble across a lantern to complete the retro collection.
@@Pineboxperspective using gasoline without a gasoline generator will cause the generator to burn through quicker

Agreed. Hard to beat propane.
