petrol again

In an attempt to negate that argument, I don't consume 6 bottles per 100km while driving, my cruiser does (24lt per 100km)

Gees Iain I thought my F250 was bad at 20 per 100.

Strewth Iain :eek: ! You do recall that the horse float can be disconnected?

I prolly spend about $150 per week on fuel.

Al :eek:

Yeah but we are driving Corollas, Gina has only got about 2 points left so she has slowed up a bit, I still have heaps, do you know that a Corolla will do 180KPH? Try that in your F250 & see how much you use a week.

I am constantly amazed at people complaining at the price of fuel but don't bat an eyelid at walking into the servo and paying $4 a litre for bottled water.

What makes it particularly sad is that some recent laboratory tests showed the bottled water had more sediments and bacteria than tap water, in almost every instance (test conducted in Melbourne using Melbourne tap water).

[Skew ChiDAMN!!]

I dunno what you lot are whinging about...

I dropped into the local servo with an empty wine bottle and rag stopper, but the bloke behind the counter said he wouldn't sell me any petrol for love nor money. He did sell me a lighter, though...

This just proves that nothing can live on the Melb water & the sediment is so heavy it settles out before it comes out of the tap.

Our trip from Geelong to Brisbane cost exactly $247 in fuel using the highest octain fuel available. Vehicle: longwheel base Toyota highace. Load : approx 900kg Distance : 1741 km I thought this was pretty good.

Now here's the wierd part. Same trip last year cost $293 and the year before $276 according to our log books.

So how come the big difference. Partly due to cruise control and partly dueto GPS and new motor. GPS took us a different route that was way further than the direct route we always take and somehow cut almost 7 hours off the journey..... Go figure.

Wierd stuff eh ........ Neil
