    I thought it was obvious.

    motorcyclists often get judged as all having a death wish, no?

    I'm saying dont judge the few by the many.

    Running a diesel cant be that cheap now, diesel use to be about half the price of petrol now only a few cents behind, poor diesel owners cant afford to do servicing I supose!

    It is preferential to refrain from the utilisation of grandiose verbiage in the circumstance that your intellectualisation can be expressed using comparatively simplistic lexicological entities. (...such as the word fuck.)

    Sorry, but they don't.
    Humans ignoring the pump auto shutoff, topping off the tanks and filling up the designed expansion space in the tank cause spills.
    I had to politely ask my local Caltex operator to not do it.
