Fuel prices?

Tried this last time and the one guy wouldn't keep the blindfold on. Kept peeking under it. Another kept bitching he couldn't breathe through the game bag. Too much hassle.

Try chloroform. Sometimes they struggle a bit, but it’s usually over and lights out pretty quickly.

Too bad they didn’t sell Suzuki Jimni’s here, would be very popular.

Try finding a reasonable price on a Samurai now!

Was at Van superstore today.
Diesel was $2.59 per litre-12cents per litre higher than a few days ago.

SURPRISE, SURPRISE!

Today -same place, same station-diesel was 40 cents per litre cheaper!

WHAT GIVES??
Also a lot fewer masks seen including store employees!

I don’t know who Janet yellen is but she sure sounds like she went to the same school as chrystia freeland. Trying to set the price of Russian oil so we can buy it cheaper. I don’t know if they’ll have much luck forcing communism on a superpower like Russia, but it’s a good thought. If sanctions drove the price of oil up, maybe removing them would have the opposite effect, but what do I know.

The US is planning to limit the price paid for Russian oil but at a level that would still be profitable enough for production to be continued, Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen said in an interview with the Wall Street Journal published on Wednesday.
“We have heard some concern about the possibility that Russia would simply stop producing. I would say that it doesn’t really make a lot of sense as a Russian response… We would expect to set the price cap at a level that would clearly be profitable for Russia to continue to produce,” Yellen was quoted as saying.
According to the official, the price-cap mechanism would require that any tanker carrying Russian oil only receive financing and insurance from US, UK and European Union institutions if the sales price of the oil is below the cap. According to Yellen, many countries would have no choice but to accept the price cap, given that a number of the globe’s major maritime insurance companies are based in either the EU or UK.
“It makes it easier if at least they put a price cap in place… But even if they don’t, this sanction will apply to Western banks and insurance companies that they’re going to be dealing with, and so they’re going to be affected by it. But it doesn't hurt them. It helps them,” Yellen stated.

I would love to have a Jimny, they look like awesome vehicles.
The "easiest" way is to import a used one from Japan, mind you it has to be 15 years old at least.
Here are a bunch of good images: https://duckduckgo.com/?t=ffab&q=suz...ages&ia=images

I have a Mitsubishi Pajero that I imported about 12 years ago, but it's not that great on fuel.
Otherwise a very good 4 wheeler.

A friend was just offered $20k in a parking lot for his great condition '90! Crazy! (he said no).

I do have to say, my carbureted '89 get's horrendous gas mileage for a 67hp 1.3 engine. But of course much better than my diesel truck!

In point Roberts the diesel is cheaper than regular!!

Thing is!, if oil prices start to come down (and I am not complaining), it might mean the kickoff to a recession when you consider the markets and what the earnings are potentially this week.
Historically Anyways.

For those electric car aficionados' this may be something to consider as electric energy costs hit records in Europe where costs in France are hitting the $1300/mWhr making filling up your empty battery at about $130, in Estonia it is around $5000/mWhr making it $500 for a refill.

Going green just may be going to cost a lot more green than the green new deal lets on...
