I thought my boat was bad enough at $400 to fill it

With petrol prices being what they are and unfortunately to probably become more than what they currently are, I feel that a lot of people might soon look to selling their thirsty cars and going for 4 cylinder models.

I wonder if the market will be flooded with Petrol/Electric Hybrids in the following decade or so or possibly even by totally electric cars?

Looking at the fuel prices worldwide, we are still relatively cheaper compared to Britain, Greece etc. Prices in the Arab states are very cheap. I guess we were a bit spoiled for a long time and got used to cheap fuel.
Today, we just have to adjust our expenses to accommodate the necessary expenditure on fuel. Get rid of luxuries like food, clothes etc.
(joke) I guess we just have to adjust and get our heads around the fact that fuel will NEVER go back to the good ol' days....flatstrap

It's not if - but when. And I'd say before the fed election we will see $2/ liter.

I gave up my dreams of a boat a year back and got a kayak.
Insurance - goes on household
Fuel - Nil
Boat Rego - Nil
Boat License - Nil
Trailer - Nil
Trailer Rego - Nil
Trailer Insurance - Nil
Gym membership - Nil

The yak inc all accessories (inc lights & sounder) was about $3,000 and could last me 5-10 years if I look after her. By the sounds of it some boaties go through that many $ just on their annual petrol bill.

Benefits - Fitness and weight loss; combine that with fishing and landing some ripper fish.

Nothing different. Can't beat the big oil companies and they know it, so I'll just pay the extra.
