They are in fact your fat cat pricks that all you fools voted for at the last election. They just come here to make their bad decisions. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paradoxx Colossal Member Member 5,049 Member For: 20y 4m 11d Gender: Male Location: Perth, WA Posted 10/09/05 01:12 AM Share Posted 10/09/05 01:12 AM This is ridiculous. Why do people think it will make a difference not filling up on a particular day? The face is if we organise to not fill up on the 22nd, to make sure they have enough fuel everyone will go the day before or will stretch it to the day after. Lets say over 3 days 300 people attent a particular servo... 100 a day. If the 100 people dont go on the 22nd, 50 will go on the 21st and 50 on the 23rd... that's still 300 people buying fuel in that week!If you want to make it worth anyones while on that day, dont fill up your car, but dont drive it either! Ride, walk, train, swim, zepplin whatever you can do to get to work. When fuel consumption drops for a day, maybe there will be an impact...my 2.2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DallasQLD Lifetime Members 1,197 Member For: 22y 30d Gender: Male Location: Albany Creek QLD Posted 11/09/05 08:12 AM Share Posted 11/09/05 08:12 AM Another pointless protest. This will have little or no effect on the fuel companies. We have cars that use fuel. They sell it. No brainer. Converting to LPG or diesel is fruitless as well. Get ready for the backlash from mums and dads who stop buying Falcons and Crapadores and start buying cars with better fule ecomony. have a look at the figures - the writiung is already on the wall for the big 2. Go to the UK and preview here in 12 months. VW Aus can't get enough diesel golfs etc. Lets face it bread and butter Aussies buy Falcons and Commodores. They may change their minds whwn they cost $100 to fill - that's big chunk out of the pay each week!I am reliably told down at the dealership there is big concern over fuel prices - they may review their sales forcasts - espacially for V8 Falsc and commodore. I would not want to own a Fairmont of Calais V8..... why would you buy one?In my business the fuel bill has gone up 40% in 4 months. This is going to hurt everyone as we along with most other business try to reocver added costs. We have no choice. Our courier this week put up their charges 27%..........
