Where at? I just paid $1.48 at Shell in Winnellie. I know that's not the cheapest about but didn't think there would be that much difference.

Are you sure you want to be putting E10 into your outboards. I won't even put it in my cars.

Why not just refine all our fuel grade crude oil here in Australia rather then sending it to Singapore to be refined and then buying it back at world oil price + shipping then the freight to regional areas. If we refined it here well I'm sure it would be a damn sight cheaper, bet that's what America does that!!

Production prices look at how much iron ore we send only to buy it back as steel products. Funny that gold never goes anywhere as ore.....
