I have been restocking my Gates hoses,Gates is made in Mexico and prices are crazy for 3 ft sticks now depending on the size cost from $50.00 up to a $120.00 .I needed a piece of 1-1/2 in Green Stripe yesterday Napa wanted $21.00 for 6 inches and I wouldn't pay it so I went to my hose shop he charged me $11.82 for 6in that would have been $3.00 2 years ago.They say inflation is down it is BS
