It will only be a matter of time before the government decide you'll need to pay more tax on LPG, no matter what you think they will get you cash somehow. It happen to diesel, it will happen to LPG.

I never fill my Tank full.

Every Litre weighs roughly One Kilo. Its all relative

Besides, If I was worried how much a Tank of Fuel costs, I wouldn't enjoy my newly acquired 2.5V6 as much

My diesel runs pretty much the same with 4 up and a full tank, as it does with only me and nearly out of fuel.. Torque innit..

I think stephen Hawking might disagree with you.

More weight=more energy needed to move=more fuel
