As I found out during the big ice storms of a few years ago, after a few easy winters where I didn't need it I had slacked badly on my winter prep, kerosene fortunately has a long shelf life.  Had it not burned I would have been in bad shape, but it did and I had enough to last a few days until the road had been cleared and I could get out to hunt for more.

I always have kersosene. There's a kerosene pump at the gas station in town. Probably still a fair number of tractors burn that. We have that crock well in the yard too with a hand pump on it. That's a life saver. When we lose electricity...the water goes out too.
