Far out, geez I really feel for you guys in the NT...

You're getting done like a dogs dinner - why?

I just shouldn't be 50% more

i'd like to know the actual cost on the ground

because the inland fuel prices are beyond ridiculous....

I don't complain about it to be truthful. Have a look at some of the distances they have to transport the fuel for us. Three Ways alone is 1000km's at least from the nearest depot. Kinda a bit different to the East Coast.

Yes but Darwin and Gove are direct shipments from Singapore so there is no freight at all (well apart from the shipping cost and a fuel truck from the wharf tank farm). Yes the other places are far inland but so is much of QLD, NSW and WA. So why do we pay almost as much and often more on the coast?

Now I've got that off my chest, I don't spend that much on fuel anyway I manage about 70L in the Disco every 4 to 6 weeks. And anyway milk's $4.65 for 2L!
