Caltex in Kurnell closed down in 2014 and now its a Fuel Import Terminal still run by Caltex of course.

We are currently dependent on imports for more then 90% of its fuel needs which is wrong.
To take you point on another tangent, I believe If Australia Built LPG powered cars from scratch, and charged what they should for the fuel we have in Abundance. you would be amazed at how many people would drive a car that cost so little to run.
I'm not talking about adding a system to an engine & car designed to run on petrol. I'm talking Purpose built.
