Exise to be put on 2.5cpl starting 2011 capped at 12.5cpl at the moment.

The price of LPG is ridiculous at even 70cpl if you have a mixer setup that loses about 25-35% economy to petrol =$1.00 pl, and if the same tax applied to it as petrol we would be paying the equivelent of $1.40 for LPG which is robbery worse than Petrol.

Gas Injection sounds like the go not losing economy but with its high cost savings will take longer to gain.

Petrol Companies arnt the real robbers the government is.

ULP $1.43cpl GST 14.3 TAX 38.7=53.1 TAX ,90CPL GATE PRICE [approx]

Not axed nor halved, but expected to cost $98M in 2008-09 v's $160M in 2007-08. And only funded to $98M next year. When that runs out ppl will have to wait until July '09 to get their rebate. So if going LPG, get in early.
