70/30 is about as strong as a person needs to go even with the coldest temps but there are locations where this protection is needed. Folks that have good water need not purchase but one gallon to make 2-gallons of 50/50 mix. If the local water has too many minerals then a person has to get more creative or buy the 50/50. Good hydrometers are harder to find now days

When I was young, I would have never thought that folks would pay as much for water as they do now days. One way or another water isn't really free anyway but it cost a way lot less for community water back in the day and water wells didn't cost so much to drill either.
