    I find either BP or Caltex vortex adds a bit of efficiency to the millage but not enough to stress about where I go.
    I only mainly use Caltex as I drive past it daily.
    Cheers

    BP Ulty unless I am travelling

    Local BP is non-company site, friendly, keeps his CPL steady IE doesn't price cycle and is always in the cheap end of pricing.
    I use them for all those reasons even when competitors drop a few cents lower on 'special' days.

    All the family vehicles run smoother and get better economy on Ultimate or Vortex.
    When we are away we use whichever is the cheapest of the two.

    Urangan Caltex depot which Council trucks and vehicles use so good volumes. When visiting Brisvagas, fill up both tanks at Puma (ex Matilda again with big volumes) just south of Gympie on way home as it is the cheapest in SE Qld. No difference to economy or performance.
    At the end of the day, all you have is yourself and all you need is your friends (and in our case our Patrol)

    I thought it was changed recently ..........wasn’t it?

    Besides statements claiming that “Diesel Engines saves money” can only be made by someone who doesn’t own one, or who lives in ‘wishful thinking land’ ....... and give the guy a break - he could have just written the bare minimum, but he managed to slip an extra ’s’ in.

    Hiya matey,

    I'd love to give these guys a break... literally...

    Just give 'em teh bloody things or have a membership qualifying time or cap the download speed.

    Even the Forum guide says "Go and post your 25 pieces of shyte in the Intro's" and don't clutter up the Techo Boards.

    If it is 1/2 way appropriate posts I have no issues at all, but seriously?

    Anyway, gotta go as I am late for my anger management class.
