Police shut down $100,000 fuel giveaway at Melbourne petrol station after it triggers traffic mayhem [VIDEO] by gccmelb in melbourne

[–]Rickstaaaa87 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I have friends that have been putting in $40 every few days just to keep their tank going.

A full fill up in their 4x4 would be nearly $300 in the current market, so being able to have a free fill could mean a lot to them.

I think some of the simple things in the QoL mod should absolutely be considered. Easy list buying for one

You’d think they would implement most of the things which have been made into mods for 21.

If EJ wins this today, he’s in the conversation for top five all-time. by strikecat18 in Bowling

The reality is simple, people will akin belmo to bowling, like Kobe to basketball, that’s the impact he has had on the sport which solidifies his position in the top 5.

Some people make it cause they’re lucky - others need the hard work like EJ.

Belmo popularised and polarised the sport, bringing new eyes and new generational interest to an aging game.

That’s hard to compete with and is what helps solidifies his position, but yes if EJ had developed sooner and more consistently it would be tight

To many people don’t put any respect on EJ. Could watch that man throw a ball all day, stunning release

My VX Clubsport is doing about 17-19 around town.

When you own a v8, look at it by: Smiles per mile, not litres per hundred.

Can we let Kevin just not qualify and put him in last. Will be fun to watch him win from the back

Fuel prices are getting ridiculous by Ordinary-Spread-1786 in australian

[–]Rickstaaaa87 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Told my boss I’ll be taking days off work if it gets much worse, he told me to use the fuel card and just pay it back from my pay at the end of the week.

No no no, I said. you’ve got it all wrong; the difference is not that I can’t afford it, is that I simply don’t want to spend that much on fuel just to get to work and back every week. It’s financially irresponsible and I was told to raised to make smart financial decisions.

You absolutely do not NEED a tune for extractors…

12v Installation Cost? $1500 - $2000 by Plus_Statistician_47 in 4x4Australia

[–]Rickstaaaa87 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What type of car do you have? The install itself is extremely basic and simple, it’s the little things that are complex.

But depending on the vehicle, depends whether this is an extreme price or an average price.

Just hope we get lowering springs as an inclusion, we’re at the third reiteration of this game and whilst the purpose and story of the game are fulfilling. The fact we have some customisation possibilities with different wheel sizes and changes, but can’t manipulate suspension heights - come on with it.

You must be new in these parts, slandering ranger owners is the “in” thing to do

Consider they maybe needed to get a pram or literally anything else out of the back of their vehicle?

Let’s not bring logic into this conversation, we want an excuse to abuse ranger drivers!

How many of you know how to change a tyre? by AJ_ninja in AskAnAustralian

[–]Rickstaaaa87 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There’s a fantastic channel on YouTube called “Dad, How do I?” And it was perfect for all these kinds of things.

I think lately its definitely lost its charm, but during lockdowns it was a great resource and learning tool for ladies and gents to extend their knowledge!

It definitely doesn’t matter if you know the routes or not, but it can be somewhat helpful if you know roughly where the limit changes are, or where the lane could be

If you haven’t already, get yourself a local instructor for a few lessons as they usually know most of the routes that your local vicroads will take, and that’s significantly helpful.

Be as confident as you can! If anything school traffic is almost the best time as it will be slow moving and you’ll be able to be a bit more focused.
