My sister in law’s hybrid does 1200 km on a tank in city driving. She typically only fills in once in 2 months.

Nice. The truck I was fixing today does less than 1.3km/lt.

And I’ve just ordered another 2000lt of diesel for delivery tomorrow @ ohfck$/lt.

On the upside, sort of, I’ll be picking up 12t bluemetal from Bunbury in the morning, delivering it to Bridgetown, and then carting sand into the same site till Friday evening.

I filled up today, ordinary sedan. $75 😩

It’s not unusual for me to fill up at a servo at $1500+.

Most of the time I can pass that cost onto the customer, but sometimes, I just have to eat it.

For the past few months, my earthworks quotes have included a proviso that “This quote assumes that the price of diesel is less than $2/lt at the time of earthworks. If it is higher, a fuel surcharge will be charged according to the price of diesel at the time.”

If it wasn’t for the orange fuckwit bombing the source of diesel, I could actually be able to provide a stable sensible price, but of course we have a stable sensible president who randomly starts bombing other countries to try to hide his own guilt, and we are the victims.
