I hear you - I haven't paid for fuel for a daily driver for nearly 20 years but I only noticed it had got so high when the pump clicked over the $100 mark the other day - not something I've seen before.

Now why is diesel so much dearer than unleaded?
Used to be a lot cheaper as costs a lot less to produce.
Why arnt the earthmovers and farmers complaining?

Funnily enough, not enough demand used to be their excuse for diesel being dearer! :bat:

I remember pointing out to someone 20-odd years back, that a tank full of fuel then cost more than the monthly repayments were on the first new car I ever owned!

hmmm...


Prepare and save up for the coming holiday season gals & guys :)

They get about a 38% rebate I think, to counter the 'road tax' component of diesel, plus buying in bulk it is a bit cheaper.

I have never paid a single cent for diesel in my life.
Cant even recall ever pumping it into any car i have owned or driven.
Im only 45 though so a spring chicken by all accounts :nazibanned:
