Default """ PETROL """" WTsilent f.

long sory short . filled up XR6 WITH E10 yesterday 566 LITRES ON ODO WHEN I PULLED IN . $102 LESS in my wallet when i drove away . ( e10 )
filled up GT next day 480km on odo $106 less in wallet when driving out .( 98 ulp)
i dont know .
but things are changing . can i afford to keep the gt YES , ABSOLUTELY , it's worth the sacrificial cost to a FORD /FPV enthusiast ( gota spend your money somehow right )
FG XR6 well i own it , its safe , its reliable , its nice but probably not sellable .
when i checked my payrise today( yes i'm a unionist ) and did some calcs and realise that 43% of my pay is taken away in taxes etc before i get it . it's a little tiring . my superannuation contributions are almost 2 x what my minumum mortgage repayments are .
then to buy petrol ( another necessity ) at over 200 per week , then tolls . yada yada yada .
feel free to have a ****** .
as a ford forum , where are we going here . i understand why big cars might be over . but i'm not sure .
