Precisely.

Perhaps the purity is an issue. Huge chasm in purity requirements between fertiliser and adblue.

Bed pans to be left at the front door by everyone and collected with your recycling. Sensors added to your toilet to ensure you do not waste a resource in short supply

20,000L is hardly anything. Just one rigid tanker.

Looks like people doing adblue bypass tech will make a killing. This shortage won’t stop most trucks it will just lead to increased non compliance of the emissions laws. My Boss ordered a 1000 litre pellicon this morning and it was delivered just after lunch so that will keep our 2 trucks that require it in the fleet going for 6 months anyway. Interestingly one of them sips very small quantities and the other one drinks it like no ones business. Both 500HP Scania’s with the same engine and drive line in otherwise identical trucks, only 12 months build date difference - they must have upped the dosage to meet a standard between the 2 builds as it’s the new one that likes it more.

Driving style has a bigger effect on Ad-Blue consumption than fuel. It's a more accurate guide to who's flogging the truck.

This could perhaps include bowel cancer screening rather than the Australia Post system?

Both driven by the same person - only one out at a time. One’s a crane truck, ones a tilt tray. Both twin steer bogey drives, owner of the business is the only one that drives these 2, he won’t let anyone else behind the wheel - the older pre adblue trucks are the ones the others drive - he was the one telling me about the consumption of adblue. Fuel usage is very similar. Maybe an issue with the dosage?
