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.
