$0.15-0.20/L difference equals about $10 more to fill up the tank - just buy one less lunch/magazine/whatever each week if thats a big amount to you.

Yea you'll all go get electric cars then the demand for electricity will go up and so will the prices.

Have to go the solar panel setup on your roof and get the 8grand government rebate to save a lot long term.

Have thought about it for a drag car though. Seen some guys on discovery doing home made conversions in old cars ( in the US though ). Not much to break on them!!!!

Ive herd that the cost of petrol can go back to around 50c-80c a litre if they mix in 10% ethanol witch will work fine on a normal combustion engine and
Is actually better as it will have a even higher octane rating

fuck it! , im gonna make my own
