Agree!!
In this case, complaining about fuel price is relevant, when someone moves to other political stuff & religion there is a problem.
Many on here are very sensitive to fuel prices & there are often posts about country location prices. Thats a good thing.
I have never seen anyone complain about EV prices or cents per Kwhr at the recharger. I guess that will come when there are electric jeeps.
Save your politics & religion for social media like Facebook!

The answer to your quote on the Transport Industry was given in my post #5.
Exactly the same reason we come here for knowledge and experience...when you own one you have inside knowledge of the machinations of the item/product.

Nowadays an app like "Petrol Spy" is needed, for quite awhile I have found outside the city and major towns the price of diesel is 5-10c/lt cheaper ... On the sunny coast at the moment theres a variation of 20c/lt in some areas...

So many factors in heavy vehicle crashes, it doesn't take much, I remember thinking once as I looked out the Kenny's windscreen at 100kph, loaded with pumpkins that I was hanging onto 40 ton of possible mayhem and one tiny thing could unleash the lot...... when they decide to go you just hang on.... have had one sideways when I discovered a diesel spill once, pulled sheepskin out of bum for months after that.... thankfully I was unloaded.
