I think Yankee Johnny Poodle is speaking out of a hole in his arse when he says that petrol prices will come back towards $1.20 per litre. His paltry tax cuts have all but dissapeared, eaten up by interest rate rises and higher fuel costs. It's not the gas guzzling 4WD drivers feeling it now, it's mum and dad Australians in their falcadores that will be feeling it. The bloody Magna (The 2000 VRX, not the previous racing Magna) cost $80 to fill the other day.
The dumb thing is diesel is dearer, but is much less refined, esp in Australia. The chem eng in me can tell you that petrol comes off the Hydrolytic Cracking Tower at about the 14th tap whereas diesel comes off at the 4th tap in Australia, or the 5th tap if you want quality. The future for more economical motors and alternative fuels is things like biodiesel.
Cant imagine a diesel busa though Regards
