LPG availability in Melbourne is pretty good for now, especially locally to me I've got a lot of servos to choose from, though you can see the new servos don't have it.

Curious as to the conversion costs, given the amount of driving I'm doing it would only take maybe 4 months or so to pay off the conversion in fuel savings.

The other alternative is look into diesel ute but the price of those is pretty exy in single cab compared to say $3000-$4000 in LPG conversion cost on the old ****ter.

Technically I have a diesel ute already, it just has a 24 tonne GVM, I'm somewhat curious as to what fuel economy it will do unloaded, if it works out cheaper than the Thailux I might start driving that as the daily once I've sorted it out, somehow I doubt its going to beat 14L/100km
