#138 - Dirty Fuel, Empty Servos and the Death of the Diesel 4WD?
About this episode
The episode discusses Australia's fuel crisis, its implications for 4WD enthusiasts, and the potential shift towards hybrid and electric vehicles.
This week we go deeper on Australia's fuel crisis; what's actually causing it, why we only have 34 days of diesel in reserve (and why that number is worse than it sounds), and what it all means if you're a 4WDer planning a remote trip right now. We also get into dirty fuel, the government lowering fuel standards, and whether the crisis is finally making the case for hybrid and electric 4WDs. The 4WD Podcast powered by Tyrepower. Recorded at BackChat Studios built by grounded. Music by The Southern River Band. Tough Dog Making Tracks Across the World! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
