I live here. Already swapped out gas entirely with electric.
It's awesome. Induction is so easy to clean too.
Our government also have incentives for solar and hot water
Our only problem here is we have so many anti woke idiots (which tend to be the ute owning crowd) who own multiple bbqs, but still think the moment for power goes out (which they seem to suggest happens on a weekly basis and they don't want to go battery), hot water suddenly goes cold
They're also the same idiots who don't realize that most gas heaters need an electric fan and won't work in an outage.
ute owning
do we even have those anymore? I refuse to call yank tanks utes, they're light trucks.
I call them what they are. 99% of the idiots driving them don't need them.
I used to be a tradie, and the laughable thing, is that most of these idiots complain about everything.
They complain about the petrol costs, when their tools get stolen out of the back of the ute its not their fault, and when they f*** up onsite, they never admit it and often won't take responsibility.
There are legit uses for utes (like plumbers often need them for water tanks or hvac). But, 50% of the people driving them onsite are better off with a van, and I have NEVER seen anyone drive a UTE/truck like a dodge RAM who had ANY legit use for it (they're always the people doing the least work).
The good news is that its only a matter of time until the bigger ones require a special license to drive
Yeah, but how do you propose I take my van to Fraser Island once a year to drive over turtle nests? That ute that I claim under tax because it's for "business use only" is a necessity!

And how will people know I'm a real man without a giant vehicle displaying my fragile masculinity?
