Thread: The price of R.U.C

How could they possibly know how much diesel you have purchased? your kms are logged at every warrant as long as there is no minus ks or odd readings(my wagons previous owner did around 25,000 every second six months and non on the other 6 months!) also I could burn 100 liters in under 100km easy in serious 4wding for the sake of 4wding.
Diesel costs less than half(or so I am informed buy people in the industry) to produce than petrol, therefore diesel should be well below half the price of petrol(as petrol has tax built into the price and diesel doesn't because we pay RUC,Yea right)
They should have a very low cost lightweight sticker for the small diesel shopping trolleys that everyone says we should be using to get grocery's and drop kids off etc. Yep much more fuel efficient and less emissions than a petrol but why the hell would ya in NZ.
Ute's rego is higher because they are generally owned by businesses that can claim expenses and can afford to pay it make no mistake it is nothing to do with accidents.
