who cares!! if it goes up 20c/l its only an average of about an extra $10/week depending on fuel usage.
i don't buy cheap fuel. its cheap for a reason. bp ultimate all the way. if it hits $2/litre i'll still drive my car. it guzzles too as its a v8 but i don't mind. it sounds good and it goes good. el poochino - off topic, but i noticed in your sig you say 1 of 39 built for the xr wagon. i'm guessing thats for red ones. there were 476 wagons all up, 198 of which were manual. i had one. |

Pulp is 124.9 around my area and to be honest even if it goes up by 10 cents its an extra 7 bucks a tank its not exactly going to bust the bank account.

i sorta need it, well i drive a shitbox EA (that isnt mine) to work, 5 days/week i do 150km's a day (traveling to and from work) fill up twice a week. If i drove my ED which isnt on BBQ Fuel, it would cost me $120, which isnt worth it cause its like 1/4 of my pay!

Last weekend I drove 460k in the XR6T for $29.
I am glad I am not paying for the dinosaur blood. I use dino-farts.

Well gas has shot up about 30% here in Perth.
Maybe we should all get together with our mates and boycott a particular brand for a couple of weeks, this will hurt them and cause them to ring down their prices and the others will follow suit to keep custom. In Perth there's a particular brand that is usually one of the firts to increas prices. What do you reckon, I'll kick it off by suggesting a brand but I won't use their name but heres a hint to remember,Boycott Petrol : : :

The car behaves no differently to a petrol version. Boost up just the same, just as easy to get booked. I dont know how much it would cost in a petrol verion to do 460k, but with petrol on the rise I am very happy with it. I have covered 10,000k since 1 Jan 07 and I have had no problems whatsoever.
