Now I don't know what greedy people you're referring to. Maybe you meant government and the parasites who depend on it. But if you meant oil companies, you're wildly uninformed. I'm sure they'd love to be greedier than the spending-addicted governments of the world, but unlike government they actually have to compete, perform, and balance their budgets.
This would be why the oil companies say they get very little money for the fuel yet every year post ever higher record profits.
Money grabbing arsewipes aside, the age of cheap oil is over and this is only going to get worse as the years go by. This is why when I get a new car my first question is how many mpg does it get. |

The garage sign was broken Unless you do mad mileage diseaseal barely saves any money now, I calculated that it would save me -ú200-400 over three years if I got the same model car with a diesel. Not worth it for me imo, performance wise the gap is nowhere as big as it used to be but its still there.
I only need to fill up once or twice a month and I drive everywhere. I can get 70-100 mpg in town depending how economical I drive and 120 on the motoway at 60mph. Diesel rocks. |
